They're all over the place. Do you not think that, say, the Ivies or the Nobel-prize-producing powerhouses like Stanford and Berkeley qualify? Not to mention less glamorously romanticized institutions which nonetheless demonstrate high levels of scholarship? Or even medium-tier schools that nonetheless demonstrate committment to scholarship over, say, sports?
You might get an interesting discussion going if you give us some examples of specific insitutions and what exactly they're doing that leads you to believe they are undervaluing scholarship.
