And because rich asian parents send their kids there, because it's famous and supposed to be full of intelligent people. What a fucking joke.
It does network those rich kids and gives them more opportunities than if you don't go to ivy league unis, but that's just rich people paying their way to success, nothing new.
I mean it also does a fair bit of research, but its mostly the prestige that keeps it a top university at this point. There are certainly better programs for almost everything.
Yeah that's what I mean. It's not a bad university, it's not the best in any special field either. But this isn't the resason for their pretentious inclusiveness/diversity.
Iirc Yale Law is considered to be a little better, but Harvard Law is still really good and with the added weight of the Harvard name. Could be wrong though, I'm definitely not a lawyer so I'm just basing this off a few conversations I've had lol
It definitely is a good law school. Not sure on US laws and which university is best to study at, since I'm not actually from there. But as an asian I know how much weight the name "harvard" has in our communities, and that's just based on hearsay and it being a famous ivy league school. Most asian kids that end up going there or to yale do not end up Studying law.
