Honoring the Olympics by giving you this cake. I think it means job well done. If I went to CMU maybe I'd have known that.

Sheetcake, if it isn't too much to ask, could I please get a cake that has multiple levels? I can't think of the proper term for that. Maybe someone smarter than would know the word. You know, like a wedding cake?

Wow, I was expecting my alma mater to be dead last, but we aren't. #453!

I'm surprised they put us ahead of schools like Kentucky, SDSU, and Loyola Marymount.

Still, I figure I should be wallowing in self pity because I didn't go to CMU.

You could start a thread about how you are cute, sweet, good grades and activities, but are not a graduate CMU. Will this hurt your chances at a successful life? Will all employers and boyfriends cut you right away? are you ashamed to wear your alma mater's sweatshirts in public?

That would be a TIER CAKE. That's quite a bit fancier than me, but I'll see what I can do.

This cake has four tiers, just like law schools! Go Thomas M. Cooley!

like ohmigod Forbes! Shame on you for ranking my fave schools low :( I must be a failure now because Forbes doesn't like my school :(

p.s. LOVE the TIER cake, Sheetcake! That's perfect.

I don't know how accurate that is. My school is listed as $15K... but that's about how much I paid for 4 years and not just 1.

I think the public schools' costs are actually the out-of-state fees on top of tuition.

For my undergrad, the amount listed seems to be pretty accurate according to the Financial Aid website.
