[quote=Anonymous]Let me try to summarize. Is the Ivy League a sports league? Yes. Does the Ivy League invoke a secondary meaning of academic accomplishment and prestige? Yes. Is every school in the Ivy League prestigious academically? Yes. Do most people think that going to any Ivy League school indicates some measure of academic success? Yes. Is every school in the Ivy League equally prestigious? No. Are there non-Ivy League schools that are just as prestigious as any Ivy league schools? Yes. Are there non-Ivy League schools that are more prestigious than some Ivy league schools? Yes. Are there some Ivy League League schools that wouldn’t be considered as academically prestigious if they weren’t in the Ivy League? Yes. Does every student who could be admitted to an Ivy League school go to one? No. Can you get an equivalent or better education at a non-Ivy League school? Yes. Is academic prestige the same thing as quality of education? No. [/quote]
