| MQD, seven people were admitted from my class this year.
Three chose to attend Yale, Princeton, and Georgetown instead, and of the four that are enrolling, at least two are doing so for the "prestige" factor, since both were admitted to Williams and Amherst as well. Accusing people of choosing a school due to superficial reasons may flare up tensions, I've found.
Brown does offer a better undergraduate education than Harvard does, though its alumni networking opportunities and name factor pale in comparison to Harvard. It's perfectly understandable why one would choose Brown over Harvard. |
