Random reading...

i was reading up on universities when i came across this...
it was kinda cute...

The Russell Group of Universities in the UK

Which are the Best Universities in Great Britain?

If you want to see the list of the Russell Group of universities just scroll down the page.

Back in the 'good old days' everyone knew that Oxford and Cambridge were the best universities in the UK and if you were very bright (or daddy was very rich) then you went to one of these two universities. After Oxford and Cambridge came the 'best of the rest' - places where students often considered themselves to be 'Oxbridge rejects'- places like Edinburgh, Bristol, London, and possibly a few more. After these came the old universities in major towns and cities followed by the newer universities. If you couldn't get in to one of these universities you applied to one of the many polytechnics around the country.

especially the 'or daddy was very rich'... hahaha...
got this from
