University Challenge







Been away, mostly on twitter, due to work pressures. Am stepping back a little now, so back to the ranting and raving about nonsense.

The following pictures made me wonder - what does it say if there is a 'collection' effect with regards to distribution of these universities? Is it because they were founded in that order, or something else.

Nice pictures anyway, enjoy.

    It's clustered like that because the east coast is the oldest part of our country and the most densely populated for a long time, so there are more schools. Many of the oldest, most prestigious schools are found here, especially Boston and NYC, or down in Virginia.
