It is better to be at the public flagship with a top 10-20 grad dept and good selection of Honors course in one’s field than at an Ivy with only a so-so program (computer science is one such field).



In computer science, you can have the best of both worlds. You can go to Cornell.

(Sorry to sidetrack the thread, but I have to get in an occasional plug for my alma mater, especially when it’s well deserved.)
