There is an unusual warning about 4 Illinois places of higher learning being considered as a bad deal for students and among the worst in America - allegedly.
I believe this is meant as a compliment although I'm not certain everyone will take it that way. Forbes says that there are two places of higher learning in Illinois that are now part of a 'new Ivy League'.
It's not unusual for a college to receive devotion and love from its alumni. However, there are a few universities where that affection almost takes on a cult-like quality. Did you know that 3 of these lie just across the border from Missouri?
