I'm a graduate of Boston University. We like to have all sorts of rivalries with other schools that are in a higher academic bracket than we are.
The student store used to sell t-shirts with the "Friends don't let friends..." slogan on them.
Harvard has the same reputation in Boston that it does pretty much everywhere else. Golden children, the whole lot of them.
Thing of note about that quiz though? I think the scores would be a bit more accurate if they only encompassed the Kennedy School of Government. Which isn't to say that I think everyone shouldn't be aware of portions of that exam, expecting everyone to be as well versed in political theory as they would be say...Art History is a bit much.
