@Zinhead, Tulane is doing great. #39 is not too shabby, with an admit rate in the 20s and an ACT ramge that is identical to Emory’s (30-33). I think that you overstated it when you saId that Tulane had been " hit hard by Hurricane Katrina and the economics of New Orleans." I think it is more accurate to say that “Tulane has thrived despite Hurricane Katrina and the economics of New Orleans.” This, of course, is to take nothing away from Emory and the success is has had over the last two decades, Coca Cola money or no Coca Cola money. I just think that the juxtaposition with Tulane creates a misleading impression.
