The very people who write those reports on what schools are prestigious have admitted time and time again that the rankings are basically meaningless. In reality, Harvard and Yale are only viewed as better schools because everyone views them as better schools. It's their name that carries them. They're good schools, but it's ridiculous to say that they've been the top 2 schools in the US for the past 100 years and no one else has ever come close. If you succeed at a state university with a strong background in whatever field you want to pursue, you'll be in great shape. I highly doubt anyone is going to hire someone based solely on the fact that they went to Brown, unless the person doing the hiring went to Brown themselves.
