First of all, it's a WSJ ranking -- no surprise about interest in "financial success" vs, say, "artistic expression"

Stanford wouldn't do too badly on Artistic Expression rankings these days either.  The Studio, which just won 13 Emmys, was co-created and written by two Stanford grads (Alex Gregory, '92, and Pete Huyck, '93). And the stage musical adaptation of 13 GOING ON 30, co-written by former Gaieties writer Cathy Yuspa (Class of '92), just premiered to rave reviews in the UK.
