My best friend went to Pensacola Christian College. He didnt really like it. After about a year of it he moved to Atlanta and joined the army. From what im told, he prefers Iraq to PCC.
What's the point of defending how good your school is...it's about your education, not how good people rank your school.

PSU is not one of them, nor is it an Ivy.
What's with all the Ivy envy in this thread?
All of the Ivies are great schools on their own merits, even if there was no Ivy League.
Plus Cornell gives great financial aid packages. They gave me so much money, it was cheaper for me to go there than go to UC Berkeley on instate tuition. I like UC Berkeley too, btw, their engineers seem to know their stuff well.
Just forget about all the posters in this thread who don't know the meaning of "Ivy League" or "good" education. After all, it's personal preference where to go.
Frankly, I view Cornell as a excellent institution to go for 4 years, but personally, it's not for me. I chose not to go only because it isn't near a major city, which is something I want in a college.
Notable Course: "SHHH! The Social Construction of Silence," a class focused on breaking down the classification of silence as an absence of sound and "establishing it as a presence." Or, the class where you sleep off your hangover.
lol my dad wouldn't even pay for me to go to uni and do sports-science studies at a top sports and engineering uni here in the UK. thankfully i am a million times more interested in studying engineering. but still even sport science is an order of magnitude better than this "construction of silence class" if i went to uni to do that, id be disowned.
how do you even get a job with that?

Notable Course: Post-National Gastroidentities. An excerpt from the class description: "We will attempt to answer the question of how food, cuisine, and gastronomy play an important part both in the strategies to instrument normalcy through the imagination of the modern Nation-State, and the ways in which discourses affirming nation, race, ethnicity, hospitality, the universality of humanity, interact with each other fragmenting the national gastronomic field and undermining the unpolluted self-understanding of the modern Nation-State."
some one trying to justify that pay check by mincing some intellectual words.

Defense of Cornell here is pretty funny.
article didn't say cornell was a bad school, just worst of the Ivy's.
that still leaves cornell as being a pretty good school
