Not going to happen because the rankings racket rates them based on their exclusivity.

  The tax code and federal funding is a very big stick to hold over universities to get them to do what you want. If the federal government can force US states to change their drinking laws through highway funding they can do whatever they please. Remember, the constitution restrains the government exactly as much as it wants to be restrained.

    States already do this with their public universities, that’s why they are generally considered less prestigious despite the education being basically the same. Not sure why private universities seem to get a free pass.

    > Remember, the constitution restrains the government exactly as much as it wants to be restrained. No, the American population is unwilling to die for rights any longer, because we're all too comfortable... excepting a few people like the Bundy Ranch standoff situation. I guarantee you if 50,000 rifle-toting Americans had shown up at the Capitol and told the Federal Government, "Anyone who votes for a federal drinking age of 21 answers to us. Permanently.", we wouldn't have a nationwide drinking age of 21. To an extent, this is even how the Founders expected unlawful conduct by lawmakers would be answered... They didn't realize we'd become so prosperous that we're no longer willing to die and kill to preserve rights that should be states' rights or local municipality rights. More's the pity, if you ask me.
