IVY League Universities

One of the marvels of blog is that, you never know when you are going to learn new things from it. In a blog that I posted long time back I wrote 'Ivy League MBA colleges like harvard, stanford etc'. Today I received a message from a reader telling that Stanford is not an IVY League University. This prompted me to do some googling and found some fascinating information about IVY Leagues @ Ivy League - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
