Congratulations on your Brown admission, @goofylemon. I applied there but got rejected. I think it is a wonderful program.
For what it's worth I actually gave positive reputation to one of your previous posts even though I disagreed. I totally understand your position and agree to disagree. But for me, I would only prefer Brown to a Top-10 department if it would make me physically closer to my family and my girlfriend. I am an international student, will be thousands of km's away anyway, so probably not. If that Top-10 is less of a fit with my research interests, well, I can always adjust them.
