[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think the actual education quality is very different, but Williams is more famous, has a higher rank, and enjoys a larger endowment. [/quote]

Is Williams more famous?  Vassar is pretty well known...Lisa Simpson was thinking of going there.[/quote]

In the real world, maybe 10 percent of Americans are familiar with Williams. And maybe 12 percent with Vassar. [/quote]

No Dog in this fight - neither of my kids have interest in these schools;

I've heard countless references in Film and TV about Vassar. First heard about it on Beverly Hillbillies and recently on Silicon Valley.  I think the Entertainment industry has a lot of alumni  from Vassar -  the other comments bolster this position with descriptions like "artsy".

Williams is not referenced at all in Entertainment but those who about colleges know about Williams.

I'm leaning towards  Vassar as being more popular but not necessarily "better".  And if you have these choices then "life is good!"

Well if you ever need a job from someone who watches Beverly Hillbillies reruns, you know which school to go to.[/quote]

Yeah especially industrial jobs, such as manufacturing, welding etc..[/quote]
