<p>When are they going to let the Military Academies compete and get themselves up on the list? they're real colleges too..</p>
<p>Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore is the big 3</p>
<p>Pomona/Wesleyan/Bowdoin???</p>
<p>what about Carleton?</p>
<p>hence the question mark, i am not too familiar with Carleton or LACs.</p>
<p>Pomona is with WIlliams, Amherst, and Swarthmore as the big four, more like.</p>
<p>The big three is and will always be the big three. Pomona is like Stanford amongst the Ivies...also, last time I checked, there is no major rivalry like the ones Amherst and Swatties have with Williams.</p>
<p><strong>what rankings indicate that UCLA is a "public ivy"? Other than the awesome and flawless USNews lists, of course.</strong></p>
<p>By the virtue of the scholarship UCLA has generated of course.</p>
<p>I don't think one can declare an Ivy League, public or private, with only three universities, given that it was originally a broad athletic conference to begin with. Perhaps we should rename the Pac-10 to the Pac-3 to make it even-steven...</p>
<p>Public Ivies[list=0]
[<em>]UC Berkeley
[</em>]Michigan
[<em>]Virginia
[</em>]UCLA
[<em>]UNC-Chapel Hill
[</em>]UW-Madison
[/list]</p>
<p>I was speaking of quality.</p>
<p>Also, i think most people think of Stanford as the same quality of the top few ivy league schools, and i also think declaring schools "public ivies" or "western harvard" is a waste of time.</p>

<p>You forgot W&M.</p>
<p>Tell me about it DMC. Omitting Georgeotwn is a most aggretious oversight.</p>
<p>One cannot include UNC, W&M and Wisconsin and not include UTA and UIUC.</p>
<p>Top 4 LACs are indeed Williams, Amherst, Swarthmore and Pomona. They're followed by (in alphabetical order): Bowdoin, Carleton, Claremont/McKenna, Colgate, Davidson, Grinnell, Haverford, Middlebury, Vassar, Washington & Lee and Wesleyan -- to make up the Top 15.</p>
<p>Top 10 Public Ivies (in alphabetical order): Cal Berkeley, Illinois, Michigan, Texas, UCLA, UNC, UVa, William & Mary, Wisconsin -- the 10th is a toss-up between Georgia Tech & UCSD.</p>
<p>And Drab, Harvard is the Stanford of the East.</p>

<p>Actually the descriptions of Hamburger University sound really nice. Probably it gives high quality management education specialized in one specific field.</p>
