None of the Ivy League Universities are anything like the fine wizardry institution that all of you have read about and merely dream of seeing. Though Brown does has Hermione, who is quite a gem and I have had the luxury of chatting with on occasion, it does not hold a flame to the fire of the Great Hogwarts.

Not really. Think of it this way, wouldn't it be weird if she by-passed the real Oxbridge experience in her own country in favor of the fake thing here? Don't get me wrong, I love gothic revival, but usually if you like that, you like real gothic better. @Allimba. Not really.

Dartmouth still looks more or less colonial, since we never had rich 19th- and 20th-century benefactors turn our school into a Potemkin village of the Oxbridge they wish they had attended...
