[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Duke actually has a stronger brand with the general public. Everyone knows Duke because of basketball and it isn't confused for another school like Penn is with Penn State. [/quote] And people know Bama because of sports. Not a valid reason to pick a school. [/quote] And yet schools like Notre Dame, USC and Florida have been able to leverage the exposure (and money) from football into academic credibility. I wouldn't be surprised if Alabama becomes more academically selective in 40 years. With that said, I would still pick Penn. If it was Dartmouth of Cornell, then Duke would be the pick but Penn is a second tier Ivy and Duke is a second Tier Ivy+ and the ivy draw is still significant.[/quote]
