Caltech is certainly more prestigous among academics but not the general population. West Point is easily more prestigous than any effette liberal arts college -- Swarthmore, Middlebury, et al.

Date: October 22nd, 2005 10:51 PM Author: blathering bateful public bath juggernaut Subject: West point. I think the West Point name may carry a bit further. Again we are dealing in perceptions here. In terms of actual educational experience I think both are on par with West Point.

|
Date: October 22nd, 2005 10:56 PM Author: blathering bateful public bath juggernaut Subject: Correct. It is much stronger academically. It is not in the same league prestige-wise.
Great pre-med student body, I agree. |

Please.

Kelly from the Apprentice 2 went to West Point and defeated Jen Massey from Harvard.
I'm not sure if he's a typical west point grad, though. |
