    UW is a fine school, and sure it places in top rankings in *certain* categories. But, not an elite school in general.

    also, you assholes twisted this into a CWU/EWU argument, which it isn't.

    Ask that to people seeking their PhDs.

    Stanford and MIT are "elite institutions." The UW is mostly selective. I've heard tales that they take transfers from NSCC not far from the 7/11 on Aurora. Elite!


    you assholes realize that burying the post is not the same as some kind of counterargument. The fact is that the UW is NOT an elite school. Some/certain departments are hard to get in to, like engineering, but that is mostly due to lack of funds. The engineering school is on par with the most peer schools. If you say the UW is elite then you might as well call a whole lot of its peers elite, which means it is not elite, only average.
    It's not Stanfraud, an Ivy, or a "public Ivy," but it's a good school. It's better than Central. ;)
    possibly not in music and business
    NOGAF about music
    still not proof that UW is "elite"... just a bunch of red herrings
    I never claimed UW was "elite".

    Also, red herrings > red turf

    If you had gone to an elite a decent school, maybe you would know that the things listed are not 'certain' categories. They are 'the' categories.

    This is every category of scholastic endeavor which cover everything a university does, minus humanities—which nobody cares about—but we still are very good in.

    If you think 3rd in the world in Med and 5th in the world in Life Sciences (like, you know, biology?) is not elite, you are a fucking idiot probably went to CWU a school with biology teachers as opposed to researchers.

    I still enjoy your screen-name, though.
