Hi all,

I put together a custom Google Map with all of the top US business schools charted on it. It has helped put things in perspective for me as far as location goes, so I just thought I'd share.

Green = Ultra Elite
Yellow = Elite
Red = Other Top
Blue= International Elite
Purple = Regional Elite

Well to be fair to flyover country, I think if you looked at a map of US population density you'd see similar clusters in the northeast, midwest around Chicago and west coast. It's not surprising that the top universities in the country are located in the more densely populated areas.
