our university system was the envy of the world

I've heard a lot of USAians claim this, I've never heard anyone else claim it of the USA. Like literally 0 times anywhere.

I think a large fraction of countries consider their own university system the envy of the world.

No one outside the US claims it because those that would were (not anymore) here and in the university system.

I don't mean people outside the US. I mean people who weren't born in or grew up in the US. Anyone who has not spent their life being ~~indoctrinated by the US.~~ influenced by local news and attitude.
