Oh heck no, it's the opposite (at least it was back in my day!) Brown was seen by Boston-area teens as being highly desirable, far more so than Harvard (Brown was J.F.K. Jr.'s alma mater.) They liked Princeton as well. In fact, they probably wanted to go to just about any Ivy League school other than Harvard for their undergraduate work. Even some non-Ivy League colleges such as Hampshire College were well-regarded. And if you really wanted to annoy your parents, you applied to Stanford. lol
