Whoa, there, guys. No need for an ugly (and factually inaccurate) flame war. Each of our institutions is excellent in its own right. Let’s leave it at that.
@another caltech-er: funny how Stanford enrolls a higher proportion of low-income and first-generation students than any private school in the country, and that 80% of the students are on some form of financial aid. “Rich parents” huh?
Winter break feel too short? Didn't get into that class you've always dreamed of? Vent here. :)

Dear Stanford,
1. Check out Pasadena, California. Sorry folks, it’s actually WARM there.
2. Minor detail – Cornell is in Ithaca, NY. Makes your list positively balmy.

Dear Stanford,
Caltech kids are ACTUALLY smart- we didn’t get in because of our rich parents.
