I found this article an excellent example of how this works at colleges.

while the article is older, this still applies to many, many colleges. Colleges have a vested interest in getting top students on campus. As that one person said,

Ursinus’s academic reputation once relied heavily on the sciences, especially its pre-med program. When John Strassburger arrived as president in 1995, he broadened the focus to include liberal arts and boosted academic expectations. Says Strassburger, ** “We believe outstanding students make other students outstanding.” **

This is not only true, but it also makes it easier to attract the better professors when they know that they’ll be teaching top students.
