<p>Okay, there are a lot of misconceptions in this thread</p>
<p>1) Harvard students are not the least happiest students as someone tried to claim. I believe he was referring to a survey that was done a while ago. The survey ranked Harvard students behind some of the other Ivies, but NOT LAST. Also, I believe the difference in "happiness" was very small between Harvard and the other schools.</p>
<p>2) Harvard engineering is a joke while Princeton's isn't. False. Both schools' engineering department, I believe, are ranked in the 30s by PR and only a few rankings apart from each other. Also, most Harvard engineering students take at least a few of their courses at MIT, whereas Princeton students do not have the opportunity to. I would find it hard to prove that the quality of Princeton engineering is categorically and absolutely better than Harvard enginnering (w/cross-registering at MIT).</p>
<p>3) All students who matriculate at Harvard did so solely on the basis of Harvard's prestige/name. This is such a ridiculous assumption. Maybe some students choose Harvard for the name, but ALL STUDENTS??? 'Nuff said.</p>
