Other rankings, although Harvard, Yale, Princeton still dominate, vary in their judgements. The fact is that you can go to any of the top colleges and graduate a functional illiterate,  ignorant of history and literature, but replete with bogus social justice and “progressive”notions, and political opinions force fed  by peer pressure and openly biased professors and political correctness and fashionable “socialism” without even having to read crib notes on the depredations of Marxism….rsk

Silicon Valley is rising. Mobile Americans are flocking to the Sunbelt. But most of the best colleges and universities in the U.S. remain rooted in the Northeast.

Harvard University topped this year’s Wall Street Journal/Times Higher Education College Rankings, and about a mile down the street in Cambridge, Mass., the Massachusetts Institute of Technology earned a tie for third place. Columbia, Yale, the University of Pennsylvania, Princeton and Cornell—all of which sit within 400 miles of Harvard Square—took five of the top 10 spots. Stanford, Duke and the California Institute of Technology rounded out the top 10.

“There are a lot of perceptions of Harvard you have before you arrive,” says Chris Cruz, who left his home in California to attend school there and graduated last year. “At least for me Harvard exceeded all of my expectations.”
