<p>Lets compare two schools (it may be unfair to compare, but to prove a point)
No offense to either schools. Both are great
University of Southern California and Minnesota State Mankato.
USC is ranked near the best in everything where as MSM may have only a few programs that are in the upper 25% of the rankings. I’m not saying that USC’s professors are just that good, but it also has to deal with the quality of students. If MSM has a specific class in which a great majority of the students were to go on and accomplish nationally recognized things, people would recognize that professor as being a great. Also, the same goes for USC. If a class is filled with lazy students, it reflects on the professor which brings down his reputation.</p>
