<p>thanks for the ad hominem</p>
<p>well, I really wonder how misleading this statement really is. Its hard to ascertain exactly how many science/engineering/math faculty there are at each institution without alot of work. Do you know? You must since you attacked me for being so misleading. If you subtract out schools like woody woo and achitetcture from princeton, and law, managment, divinity… and the like at yale, I would hazard that there is not a large distance between yale in princeton in terms of academy members/faculty ratio if that’s what you are looking for. I personally think that if you are going to do some sort of comparison that is going to be pertinent to applying students, a better measurement might be academy members per student - especially if all you are looking for is the research aspect. In that case, they are again about the same, and considering princeton is increasing its size to about that of yale over the next few years, yale will outpace soon enough. All in all, I think this sort of measurement like how many merit scholars and how many rickoids are in the class or how many nobel laureates are on faculty is a superficial and naive basis to compare undergraduate institution.</p>
