Not that I agree with parent, but given selection bias they can't empirically prove the opposite either (that elite schools teach well given that they select the best students). The lack of proof for the positive of course doesn't prove the negation, but I wish someone would do this experiment (admit a bunch of students randomly into a bunch of universities, compare academic performance over 4 or so years).
