IITs are not full Universities. They rank high amongst Engineering and Technology section.
THE ARTICLE BOASTS MANY THINGS..BUT THE FACT IS ITS THE STUDENTS WHO STUDY OR PASS OUT FROM IT WHICH ARE THE CROWN OF THE UNIVERSITY..
INDIAN STUDENTS ARE THE BEST IN MANY FIELD'S AND ARE CONTRIBUTING IN ALMOST EVERY FIELD OF SCIENCE AND TECH...THIS SIMPLY MEANS ITS THE STUDENTS WHO COUNT FIRST,THE EDUCATION SYSTEM,THE SYLLABUS,THE FACULTY..NOT ALONE THE BUILDING,MARKETING SYSTEM,NATION,OR SOME STATUS SYMBOL...

the ability to attract top students is also the measure of the greatness of a University.
The public’s University of California harvests family savings, Alumni donations. Cal. ranked #1 public university total academic cost (resident) as a result of the Provost’s, Chancellor’s ‘charge resident’s higher tuition’. UCB tuition is rising faster than other universities.
Cal ranked # 2 nationally in faculty earning potential. Spending on salaries increased 29% in last six years. Believe it: Harvard College less costly.
University of California negates promise of equality of opportunity: access, affordability. Self-absorbed Provost Breslauer Chancellor Birgeneau are outspoken on Cal. ‘charging residents much higher’ tuition.
Birgeneau ($450,000) Breslauer ($306,000) like to blame the politicians, since they stopped giving them their entitled funding. The Cal. ‘charge instate students higher tuition’ skyrocketed fees by an average 14% per year from 2006 to 2011 academic years. If they had allowed fees to rise at the same rate of inflation over past 10 years fees would still be in reach of middle income students. Breslauer Birgeneau increase disparities in higher education, defeat the promise of equality of opportunity, and create a less-educated work force.
Additional state tax funding must sunset. Prop 30, 32, 38. The sluggish economy, 10% unemployment devastates family savings. Simply asking for more taxes (Prop 30, 32) to spend on self-absorbed Cal. leadership, inefficient higher education pract
