Which school is that? Didn't you post a link to the US News site? That tells me you know how to use the Internet, so what's preventing you from looking up the #1 liberal arts school in the very same ranking that your alma mater is ranked as #42? And yes, it is in fact rated by Newsweek, which you should also be able to determine.Quote from bwolinsky:
Which school is that and is it also rated by Newsweek? Because I get the sense you aren't being truthful, or don't understand what was meant by top 50.
You could look at the list for number 1 by newsweek, but I doubt you actually went there.
And, clearly, you have no idea how Newsweek rankings actually work. Otherwise, you'd specify which particular list you'd like me to look at.
At any rate, my point here isn't to have a pissing contest with you about who went to a better school (even though, whatever objective criteria you might choose, I certainly did). Ultimately, while a good school helps, education is mostly about a good and willing brain (yours may be willing, but I don't think "good" would be the other adjective I'd use). What is, however, extremely stupid is you, yet again, opining on how a liberal arts education is superior to a more specialized one, e.g. MIT. So, please, I ask you yet again, for the umpteenth time, stop spouting utter drivel. You lack the brainpower to make your rants sound coherent, let alone convincing. Instead, you're getting increasingly foolish and deranged, which, for me, is almost physically painful to observe.
