Why so much WUSTL/WashU hate on DCUM?

[Anonymous]

Beautiful campus, one of best dorms & food & professors (Source: Niche), which means a quality lifestyle for undergrad

Consistently ranked in the Top 15 National Universities and Top 20 on USNEWS until this year due to the ranking methodology changes, and good weather.

Other than the lack of laymen's prestige and the location of St. Louis (which is invalid because it's actually in Clayton), why is it looked down upon on DCUM? There seems to be a lot of misinformation being spread, like a 40% acceptance rate ED1/ED2 which is comically fake and untrue.

My Senior DC with high stats from a competitive high school got rejected ED2 but got into UVA, VT, Purdue. Kids from Midwest & West Coast are dying to get into schools like UofChicago, Northwestern, Rice, Washu, ETC, but East coast seems to dislike WashU specfically.

Homelessness, racial tensions, Ferguson, gun violence, drugs, rich underachievers who couldn’t get in anywhere better

LOL. I wonder, if it’s that one Anti-WashU mom or group of same people that makes these posts about WashU, and then immediately posts replies bashing the school. Very erratic behavior.

If not, then OP, WashU is fine. Who cares what DCUMs think. Their children were most likely not qualified to get in anyway.

Don't feel bad about the hate for WashU. The same weird lady keeps hating on UChicago. There's another weird lady hating on Northeastern. A gang of crazy ladies hates on UVA. There is even a nutso Colby hater.

WashU is for kids who can’t get into Ivies. Washed Up.

DCUM is a hateful place in general.

Almost all colleges and universities are for kids who can’t get into Ivies.
