Absolutely, butin this case, spreading disinformation is an ineffective strategy.

Liberal arts majors at Brown reap the benefits of their school being in the same athletic conference as Harvard, Princeton, and Yale (and that's all the Ivy League really is - an athletic conference), so someone who obtains a PHD from a highly regarded program at a top tier public school, can reap the benefits of people acknowledging that their having received an education that it is at or above the level of education received by a Brown liberal arts major.
