<p>whats so great about C.I.T?</p>

<p>What a load of drivel, evidently not researched. whilst the post was written back in 2004 I felt compelled to respond. Its 2011, cambridge is ranked no.1, knocking off Harvard for pole position. Oxford is top 4 or 5. Forgotten eh?. Stanford is well renowned globally too but not to the same degree as Harvard and Cambridge. And lets be serious, nobody gives a crap about the second rate ivies, such as Brown, aside from in the US and only then by second tier candidates. A category I suspect you fell into.</p>

<p>^Haha. Second rate ivies is an oxymoron. </p>

<p>In terms of job recruitment, employers see them the same. Idiot.</p>

<p>Harvard >Caltech> MIT> Yale >>>>>>>>>>Princeton >>>Wharton Columbia Stanford etc</p>

<p>What a bucket of drivel flashie is writing. I guess he/she is in the rarefied position to only work with or to hire and interview people with Cambridge and Harvard degrees. I guess she/he deigns it occasionally to accept the presence of an Oxford or Yale graduate.</p>

<p>Goodness, to be forced to be in the presence of such untermensch. HEAVENS!</p>

<p>Dear me, if it were a Stanford or Brown person, I guess one should just slash one’s own throat!</p>

<p>After reading this thread I can safely say rooster08 is a ridiculously competent ■■■■■. I am impressed. The only thing is, it became too obvious he was not a Stanford student after a bit.</p>
