"even though the researchers (the Ph.Ds) are very infrequently the students' lecturers"
That's not true at MIT; are there any other exceptions to this sad pattern in research universities?
One of the advantages of the lowest tier schols that don't do (much) research is that their faculty are there to teach first and foremost. When the system works, when the instructor is sufficiently in command of his material, you get a better result than in the mid-tier schools.
