<p>hey lets all agree on this:</p>
<p>wed all love to go to an ivy league school hands down. we know that the education at those schools is wonderful, that they are prestigious, and that they truly encourage intellectual development.</p>
<p>that being said, harvard is <em>USUALLY</em> considered to be the pinnacle of the American education establishment...much liek Oxford is considered in the world at large. I truly do believe that "sropping the H-bomb" will turn more heads than Yale or Princeton will - its just natural, Harvard is the oldest and most storied institution this country has, and somehow has edged out Yale and Princeton for "#1 stunner status" in the US. That doesnt mean that the education offered at yale or princeton is in any way inferior to that of Harvard - its just that somehow, the Harvard name is more marketable.</p>
<p>And i have visited Harvard, and spent the night with severla students. They all told me specifically that they are uncomfortable when they "drop the H-bomb" because of what some people believe it to connote (social superiority, haughtiness, rich country club lifestyle, etc). However, they all love the fact that they're there, and feel that they accomplished one of their major dreams by attending Harvard. Ok ill shut up now peace.</p>
