I am glad I went to a school that is more known for being hard to get out of rather than hard to get into.
That may be why we are afflicted with such shitty leaders. They almost all come from the Ivies, which are hard to get into but once you are in almost impossible to flunk out of if you do the work. Thus, the chief selection criteria that put a large portion of our inside-the-beltway leaders on the leadership track was their high school resume.

Disaagree,while not Harvard,Yale or Penn,It's academics and acceptance numbers are on par with Brown or Columbia.
Had a cousin who went to Brown and it would be one of my last choices to go to school between the rest of the Ivies,Stanford,Duke and Vandy
I went to Auburn and Alabama. I enjoyed both and got a great education at each school.
I don't think it really matters exactly where you go to college for most folks. You need to do well and get a degree that leads to either more school or a good career.
I'm not going to be a supreme court justice, a politician or president of the AMA so for me AU and UA good choices to get what I wanted at the time.

Wait, are you trolling the ivy league? This may be the first on the rant.

First, uh No!
Secondly in the most recent rankings Cornell and Vandy tie at 15, so technically Vandy would be the Closest

massive school with a massive alumni base that are very deliberate about networking with Aggies wherever you live.
but not in every field. sure, it's dynamite in petroleum engineering but what about finance. what about moving to new York, the financial capital of the world and see what your finance degree from a&m is worth.

You're pretty spot on

You can't earn an undergrad business degree at most Ivy League schools, so busines school actually not a very good comparison point.
(I do think when people refer to "Ivy League education" they are referring to the undergrad experience.

Considering the bullshite SJW the Ivy League puts out these days?
14 of 14 SEC schools put out a better education than those idiots.

Cornell is the only Ivy with a vet program
Not that it really matters but Penn has a topnotch vet program. (But then a lot of folks down South don't even know Penn is Ivy and confuse it with Penn State.)

All things considered, probably better. But it depends on the student at the SEC institution. Many Ivy league schools today are providing a bunch of counter-education at ridiculous tuition costs. It's more about getting established into an elite clique of liberal, social justice goobs. Massive waste of money, unless that's what you want to do with your life, and you can do it much cheaper.

These dick-measuring contests have always rubbed me wrong. It all depends on major, and taking that question out removes all meaning. Cornell has a good engineering program, for example. Other than them I'd put A&M, UF, and LSU ahead of any Ivy League schools.

Being part of a cult lends itself to connections with other cult members, yeah
