no there aren't. only elite ivy league schools are good.

since ivy league is largely based on when it was formed (hint, before universities in other places existed) this is really not a fair argument in the least.

well, no, Cornell was formed in the mid-19th century after a bunch of other "respected" schools like, for example, the University of Michigan (LOL). but you're almost right. it was really formed because these were the schools that usually played each other in sporting events - it started as HYP and Columbia (IIRC) and then Brown (the best school in the country), Dartmouth, UPenn and Cornell joined in.
