<p>He'd buy into UCLA and Berkeley. Plus, he'd buy community colleges:

<p>Yay Berkeley :slight_smile: </p>

<p>". Harvard, Stanford, Berkeley and Princeton are protected because they are true universities."</p>

<p>LOL</p>

<p>“I’d also buy America’s great public universities known for their strength in science and engineering: Michigan, Texas, UCLA and the like.”</p>

<p>As much of a UCLA fan as I am, I’m going to have to admit that science and engineering are actually some of UCLA’s weaknesses(relatively speaking, anyway). lol</p>

<p>Michigan and Texas > UCLA when it comes to engineering and some of the sciences.</p>

<p>I guess he thinks it’s a good bet for the future.</p>

<p>^^^ exactly. You don’t buy stocks at their peak, you buy them when they’re on the rise :-)</p>

<p>I’m confident that UCLA and Berkeley will only get better as time passes.</p>

<p>UCLA’s centennial is coming up, btw, in 2019. That should provide a strong incentive to make the school even better and perhaps improve its rankings in some of its academic disciplines. Well, one can hope, right? :)</p>

<p>Go Bruins! :x </p>
