WSJ disses OSU and MSU

In the Wall Street Journal’s “Best of the Web” feature from Friday, March 11, the paper noted corrections it made to a story on its website about the political happenings in Wisconsin, and made the following correction about the capitols of nearby states:

Also, Columbus, Ohio, and Lansing, Mich., do have major university campuses nearby: Ohio State University and Michigan State University, respectively. We changed the column to state that they do not have elite university campuses nearby, which we expediently define to mean those ranked in the top 50 by U.S. News & World Report.

Hee-hee!
