Nobel prize is a great PERSONAL acheivement. It’s sad how varaious schools try to get themselves overrated using their tenuous connection with the winner. That’s why people shouldn’t be obssessed about it. It means almost nothing to the quality of the education u’d get. The marketing scheme used by many schools these days is pretty disgusting. At least Stanford gave a discussion on the controversies and explain how it claimed them (Stanford claims only 17). Most other schools just gave the tallying when they know so well the numbers are inflated.
