Ivy bashing continues.

This time it's Newsweek making the case that a good education can be had elsewhere. Thanks for the tip. For the record, these are the "new Ivies," according to Newsweek:

Boston College, Bowdoin, Carnegie Mellon, Harvey Mudd and Pomona, Colby, Colgate, Davidson, Emory, Kenyon, Macalaster, Michigan, NYU, UNC, Notre Dame, Olin College of Engineering, Reed, RPI, Rice, University of Rochester, Skidmore, Tufts, UCLA, Vanderbilt, UVA and Washington U.

Seems to me these schools have always been good and, to varying degrees, popular. (One exception, of course, is Olin, which enrolled its first class in 2002.) But is it really news that talented students are choosing Bowdoin, UCLA and Vanderbilt?

Anything to sell magazines, I suppose.
