Harvard Graduates
There is an infrequent blue-blooded poster who would take the title hands down in my book, but he allegedly works for MI6 so I can't disclose his identity sorry. I've said too much. God Save the Queen.

I worked with one while I was in Phnom Penh. An Aussie who rowed for Harvard with the Winklevoss twins. Good guy.

Outrageous, it was definitely a capital Q in reference to Lizzy the Great II. Aforementioned posh chap is most definitely not an acolyte of Sir Elton John. As far as I know. Allegedly.

Of course, what we all REALLY hate about Harvard is .....
I came, I argued, I'm out
^ You just pulled up the N. American ones there? I think Harvard has slipped a bit recently worldwide - though there are as many different rankings as there are universities. Anyway,
I think the only way to get in there is still to be smart in addition to any other advantages you may have.

No, this is the top of the world list - I'm afraid Oxford and Cambridge don't come in until c 15th place.RobW wrote:^ You just pulled up the N. American ones there? I think Harvard has slipped a bit recently worldwide - though there are as many different rankings as there are universities. Anyway,

That list is bullshit. Everyone knows the greatest university in the world is University of Massachusetts...

'Course it does. I'm not promoting it - just putting it out there. To be fair I was only looking at the Cambodian universities, for which I made a new thread. I'm certainly not going to the stake defending Harvard!Spigzy wrote:Depends on which list you read?andyinasia wrote:RobW wrote:No, this is the top of the world list - I'm afraid Oxford and Cambridge don't come in until c 15th place.

And who does the initial website belong to?
I'm guessing an American.
No French/German/Scandinavian/Chinese/Japanese/Russian universities.
iow, BS.
