[quote=Anonymous]I am born and raised and live in NY and I think Binghamton is a fabulous school where "smart kids go."

Better or worse than UMD? That's impossible to really say.

Does UMD have better name recognition nationally? 110%

One of the former co-hosts on the podcast YCBK had never heard of Binghamton. (The main host brought up an impressive statistic about the # of CEOs who graduate from there, or something like that.)

There's definitely a difference between a lay person who couldn't care less about "good colleges" and a person who is more in the know/educated. If the former is from say, Arizona, yeah, maybe they don't really know anything other than, University of Maryland is the university in Maryland. The latter should know that UMD has a stellar reputation in many ways and a lot to offer.

Binghamton is certainly more obscure nationally.

It's OK, a lot of people don't know there's anything impressive or have even heard about Harvey Mudd or Carnegie Mellon, either.[/quote]
