Harvard has had a law school for barely half its existence (1817 vs 1636)

Absolutely, I went to a decent SLAC and nobody knows it. My coworker went to Bowdoin and barely anyone knows it either. Americans outside of a few really know schools with good sports teams.
But something like 45% of the students at Bowdoin are varsity athletes.

Then why isn't NYU viewed more favorably compared to MIT, Brown, Princeton, Dartmouth, or John Hopkins where they don't even have a law school.
Heck NYU law school is generally viewed more favorably than the law schools at Cornell, Northwestern, Duke, Penn, or Chicago.

How else could you afford to send your kid to elite private if you are not a big law partner?

General reputations are largely based on name recognition.
Even great schools like Duke, Georgetown, and Notre Dame were helped significantly national brand wise by basketball or football from the 70s-90s.

Not true. Based more on graduate schools overall like medical and business as well as sports teams.

Then why is Princeton famous? Why isn’t Stanford seen at the absolute top?
