Why Yale and Harvard graduates are different from others?
Is it because they were trained to put themselves as citizen of the world?
Or is it the attitude to expand their profession and make things happen?
what else? ur ideas? appreciate ur comments.

I don't think they are different. In computer science literature I have encountered, these are unknown Universities.
Good Universities attract good students; or in their selection processes, only good enough students graduate. As far as I know, these two Universities are famous in social sciences such ash law, linguistics, and politics and other sciences like medicine or economics, but certainly not computing. Therefore they are not like to attract potential students who want to be challenged in computing. Therefore, people who graduate from these Universities are different from people who graduate from Stanford or MIT.
I'm sure that Richard Stallman and Donald Ervin Knuth did not graduate from these two Universities.
I might be wrong about Richard Stallman. He did go to Harvard University in 1971.
Those univ are great in social science and Harvad is great for business field.
In computer science, MIT is the top rank to go. Stanford is also welknown in computing as the founders of Google graduated there.
Beside computing skill, I think the graduate program should include leadership course as it is important to work in the manager level.
Prathna, I guess Executive MBA might answer your question about Leadership program!!!
I have serveral friends (Khmer) at Yale... To me, they worked hard to get accepted. They are just like other smart people. I enjoy talking/exchange idea with them as much as I enjoy talking to you guys. I don't see the big gap between them and our group.
