What makes Yale so special?

<p>Right, which is why I mentioned that she was comparing it with Harvard. Oh and she just graduated from HBS this year; she isn't that old.</p>

<p>In general, though, this whole area around Princeton is very affluent and sometimes snobby, and the township of Princeton itself is renowned for all the old money floating around. Plus the fact that it seems like anyone who isn't a student is over the age of 70. That's probably influencing my judgment much more than the university students themselves.</p>
