Does anybody know the success that Brown undergraduate students have in applying to top graduate schools, particularly in Computer Science?

Its one of the top universities in the country with a student body among the very topmost in the country. Its alumni work in graduate departments at the top research universities in the country. So what do you think?
Computer science is an excellent department with a very strong network of alumni in graduate departments (including several university department heads) and in industry around the country.

the majority of our top students don’t go to grad school, but instead go straight into the workforce

From
[Brown Admission: Facts & Figures](Undergraduate Admission | Brown University)
“35% of undergraduates pursue graduate or professional study immediately. 60% of undergraduates pursue graduate or professional study within 5 years. Within 10 years of graduation, 80% of all students have pursued further education through graduate or professional study. Brown consistently ranks among the top five colleges in the nation in the percentage of its applicants accepted to medical school, and these impressive records are similar in other areas of graduate study. Of those who apply to law school, 92 to 95 percent are accepted to one of their top three choices; among business school applicants, the figure is nearly 100 percent.”
