It sounds like you are concentrating on the classroom experience, but there is more to a good education than the classroom.
For instance, at schools like Caltech and MIT undergraduates have excellent opportunities to get involved with research, and have access to state of the art equipment. Such opportunities are a lot more limited at, say, a Cal State branch.
