The Ivy Leagues are important in their own minds.
I had an uncle who went through Yale all the way and taught at Michigan State for over 30 years.
He said the only difference between the Ivy’s and a decent state school was the degree of difficulty getting in.

(The problem with Obama is not that his skin is too black, it's that his ideas are too RED.)
