[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes, but Harvard is the oldest university in the USA and had a lot of time to build up a reputation (which it is now destroyed). The Rhodes starts in 1902. My college didn't even exist then, so it's clear why most of the awards go there. Plus, the younger colleges took years to catch up.[/quote] And, because the Rhodes Trust is biased towards Harvard. At least, that's what a personal contact on the Trust believes, and I tend to agree. Rhodes has a ridiculous gap in awards to Harvard versus any other institution. Harvard is great, but its students aren't THAT different from Yale, Stanford, Princeton, etc. students.[/quote] That's my impression just from looking at the numbers. In recent years, Harvard has had an astonishingly high number of scholars per year compared to its peer institutions.[/quote]
