I've got coworkers from central and from UConn, I'd take the central guys anyway. The only aspect that UConn is superior is their post grad degrees.

Your other point about the brain drain, I don't think it's too related to going to school in CT. It's about retaining them after graduation. For that you need engaging jobs and greater access to housing. Some of which CT offers, some not so much.

Central is great, but their president.... She was the dean at my university and got the boot after a 2 week student+employee strike. From what I read, she hasn't changed.

Yeah Toro is trash, but by and large the staff and institutional ability are good.
