<p>The Eight Original “Public Ivy’s” have been correctly listed before, but I’ll list the ORIGINAL PUBLIC IVY’s AGAIN: Here Goes:</p>
<p>The College Of William and Mary
Miami University in Oxford Ohio
University of California
University of Michigan at Ann Arbor
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
University of Texas at Austin
University of Vermont
University of Virginia</p>
<p>Now they did list a SECOND TIER, but these are the original schools as the term was coined, and they still stand as the original first tier of Public Ivy’s. There are no suprises on this list. This has always been common knowlegde. The only conflict I see is when somebody sees a school that they THINK should be included in this list. This is the list, folks. When the question of the 8 public Ivy’s comes up, here is the only answer!</p>
