[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this might be a good thing. If a college is outside the t75 I question why it exists/why people attend. Even Penn State level places are sort of questionable... Bottom line is no one will be missing much.[/quote]

Penn State does a billion dollars a year in research.  It is not questionable that it will exist and people will attend.  Penn State makes considerable more contributions to academia than Tulane.  No slight on Tulane intended, but they just aren’t comparable.[/quote]
No connection to Tulane, no connection to Penn State.

Tulane has higher standards than Penn State in terms of academics/intelligence. Tulane's reputation as a selective university is far superior to Penn State's. It's the difference between Rutgers and Wake Forest. If you want a massive state school that doesn't have strict standards, go to Rutgers. If you want a smaller more selective university, go to Wake.[/quote]

Penn State is a global university and ranks in the top 100 in both the QS and THE rankings.  Tulane is in to 600s for QS and 400s for THE.   Penn State has a better reputation globally.  [/quote]
