[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 806690, member: 1640"] Better in what way? Does their student body reflect the diversity of the state population? Is the football program leveraging money to allow scholarships and grants to poor students who could not get in otherwise? There are lots of questions. More money and higher GPAs is not the measure of success. The Ivys have gone through several generations of soul searching and still struggle with how to not perpetuate the power elite but truly give opportunity to those that the system often overlooks. I remember a few years ago Harvard admitted a young woman who had no formal education and was “home schooled” in the cab of her parents long haul truck. She did well and helped broaden the perspective of other students. [/QUOTE]
