[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Well, due to this, I for one am choosing to no longer participate on this board.

I think it's very disingenuous to name 3 particular schools as the "Big 3" in a FAQ that's posted at the top of this forum - especially given how hotly this definition has been debated in the past.  It is insinuating that it should be taken as fact that these are the 3 best schools - many future parents will read it that way (unfortunate for them).

I'm sorry, but this sort of response is ridiculous. Never mind the absurdity of getting bent out of shape over which schools are considered the "Big 3".  Nobody is actually naming which schools are the Big 3. SAM2 merely listed the three schools that most users mean when they use that term. Those users may all be on crack and not able to distinguish WIS from WES, but that doesn't change what they mean when they use that term.  I haven't seen that point disputed. There may well be three schools that are absolutely, beyond the shadow of a doubt, better. That is a completely separate issue and one that you are welcome to document and add to the FAQ.
