Yeah it’s different anchor.

I think it’s important for people to remember that just going to Yale or Stanford doesn’t mean you’ll do great things.

I worked with a guy that was a Stanford graduate. It was kind of a joke around the store. He had his degree on the wall, haha. He was so proud. Yet he didn’t do anything with his life.

It’s important to remember that your college doesn’t define you. You can go to a small school and end up changing the world.

As for this list, I looked it up after I saw the author on the Daily Show a while back. He said they put it together because him and his think tank buddies thought the current system was flawed. He said US News was like, "Grading a restaurant on their silverware (the dressings, test scores, GPAs of admitted students) rather than their food (what they produce, what their students do after they graduate).

I don’t agree with everything on this list but I thought it was important to point out that “rankings” aren’t universally recognized.

You’re right about ladies loving ivy leaguers. “I aint saying she’s a gold digger…” haha.
