Although the term 'Kudzu League' gets often bandied about to describe the upper-echelon institutions of higher learning in the South, it occurs to me that if there is a definitive list of these schools, I am not aware of it. I did a search, and while there is plenty of speculation as to which schools make the cut, I could not find 'the last word' on the subject.
This is a stark contrast to the Ivy League schools, whose eight members are very well known to everyone:
I'm very much at odds with this idea of ivy league. Many if not all of those schools have long since been surpassed by superior institutions.
They're all still among the best schools of the nation, they're all private, they're all old, they're all in the same region, and they all participate in one league. How confused could you be?
I've always thought the Division 1 private schools in the South should have their own "southern" Ivy League. I like the name Kudzu League.
