That's for the best schools in the world.

We're out of this world.

And though the hum and sway gets me down, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

Honestly, the only reason I'm going to Queen's is because I live in Kingston. Half the price for a good school = win

Shhhh, you're not in on the McGill vs. Queens rivalry. It's baseless and hyperbolic!

Except for McGill at #21...

And Toronto at #37...

I guess that's what you get with a UBC education.

Those are last year's rankings. I haven't found all of this year's, but the top 20 are listed here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/4379738.stm . My university moved up from 5th to 4th :D
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.

And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

Ooh, you're Oxford? Sweet deal! We visited there when I was in England 3 years ago. So gorgeous! And most of my university's architecture is modeled off yours...as well as our college system. Mine moved up from 8th to 7th this year :).
