Pati's note reminded me of a back-handed compliment that NPR
handled out in the last day or two. Discussing parental selection
bias towards universities, I recall someone saying, " ...better to
be top dog at Northern Illinois than to be one of the crowd at
Havard..." I deduced that NIU is a smaller school?
