Elitist group of colleges unnecessary

Comment on "Develop new and unique identities" (Letters and blogs, Page 4, Oct 26, China Daily)

Bravo to Michael M. Crow, president of the Arizona State University, for his comments on the new and unique universities in China. The key word is "access" for the people rather than emphasis on institutional ambitions for status. It's bad enough in America to have an elitist Ivy League, but at least we have 2,400 other top notch and unique colleges and universities for all of our students and overseas students as well.
