[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Also, specifically, if e.g., economics is the priority: Yes, Chicago, MIT, Harvard cannot be beat,“ They can’t be beat if you are putting the final touches on your PhD dissertation. That doesn’t mean you can’t equal them at the undergraduate level. The fact that most agree that Amherst, Williams, etc provide unsurpassed undergrad educations would seem to indicate that you don’t need a bunch of Nobel Prize winners to deliver top-notch UNDERGRADUATE classes. Considering how difficult it is to get a tenure- track job these days, even mediocre colleges have professors from excellent grad schools who should be able to handle any material covered in undergraduate classes. [/quote] What about research/internship/competition opportunities? MIT has better options than Williams. [/quote] None of that matters for 90% of people. The topic of this thread is flagships that educate far more. [/quote]
