  1. Oh... I worked for one of the top 25 colleges. Knowing this, I should have asked for a raise! I also spent a year in another one as a student... I must say that life on the campus reflected pretty much the tuition fees...

  2. Didn't Bennington take the top spot for years running a few decades ago? None of the Ivies make the top 25...

  3. Surprised not to see Harvard and Stanford on the list since they are Ivy league.
