context_page_description: "Public Ivy" is a term coined by author Richard Moll in his book Public Ivies: A Guide to America's Best Public Undergraduate Colleges and Universities to refer to universities in the United States that are said to provide an Ivy League collegiate experience at a public university price. The Public Ivies, according to The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education, are capable of "successfully competing with the Ivy League schools in academic rigor ... attracting superstar faculty and in competing for the best and brightest students of all races." An expanded list of 30 colleges and universities was provided by Howard and Matthew Greene in their 2001 book The Public Ivies: America's Flagship Public Universities.
