<p>People should not be hung up on “ivy League” per se. Unless they play sports (badly. for the most part) in it.</p>
<p>However, they can legitimately have some interest in things such as : extent of on campus recruiting, reputation in the job market, alumni network, success in attaining graduate and professional studies.</p>
<p>And its possible there may be some correlation. Though possibly not.</p>
<p>There are other distinctions that can also be made, regarding nature and number of : courses, fellow students, available activities. But these do not depend on “ivy league” per se, more the generic “bigger school vs. smaller school” tradeoffs.</p>
