Institutions also benefit from their relative standing precisely because they are able to attract highly qualified students, who in turn reinforce the overall research capabilities of a university. One need only listen momentarily to a university dean or provost before realizing the weight of a school's ranking among its peer institutions. Clearly, institutional prestige matters — to students, to faculty and to university administrators. Nonetheless, the benefits of prestige may come with a cos...t in terms of scientific innovation, since the next most imponant objective to having a good reputation is maintaining one. However, when it comes to pioneering new fields of science, it is often necessary for scientists to take career risks: to risk that their unconventional ideas will not bear fruit, that no other scientists will follow their lead, or that their efforts will be seen as misguided by colleagues.
