[quote=Anonymous]For some historical perspective, take a look at this Life magazine article from 1960 (from another post): https://books.google.com/books?id=ykQEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA100&lpg=PA100&dq=life+magazine+1960+college+admission+tufts+bowdoin&source=bl&ots=5BKi5WV8SQ&sig=GFl_LycVnJV8AGIXLX2P9kW97I0&hl=en&sa=X&ei=sO1TT4uPK-jm0QG8ifC3DQ#v=onepage&q&f=false Of course, most of the schools listed then are still prestigious/popular now. But there are quite a few that aren't (at least with the DCUM crowd): Antioch, Beloit, Knox, Lawrence, Muhlenberg, Union There are few schools not listed that are more popular/highly ranked today (reflecting shift in population, culture, "Mad Men" East Coast/Midwest bias of the writer, etc.): UCLA, UCSB, CalTech, WashU, Emory, Carnegie Mellon, UNC, Wake Forest, Davidson, the Claremont schools, etc.[/quote]
