You sorta chopped the meaning of my quote, there. I meant McGill isn't always #1.

You may think you gave my quote justice, but by citing objective facts...you killed it. It's not about rankings, or nobel prize winners (part of me believes the amount of nobel laureate alumni under a schools belt is as much chance as anything else...but that's a different issue), it's about academic rigor and quality.

McGill excels in certain programs, and in others...falls short; however, no university is devoid of this problem (Harvard included).

McGill's philosophy and political science programs are power houses, but how many of you knew that? How many of you have talked to professors (especially new ones) within those programs, and been told that even the staff are impressed at some of the tenure professors within their own departments?

How many people here have taken an continuing education/fac. of education course at McGill?

I think its time for some poster-accountability. If you don't know **** about McGill, don't post here. If you've got a link (that quotes straight from the horse's mouth), go ahead, though. If you've got an anecdote...think several times before you post it. Whether the oxygen is digital or not, why would you waste it?

This isn't in response to wii3, this is in response to the growing populous of this board. Do your homework before you respond.

If I'm guilty of violating any of the rules I've just laid down, it's probably because this rant is a bit too driven by mr. daniels, and whom ever owns colt 45.
