I went to a top SLAC and then got a degree in public policy at an ivy…and now I lead ESG reporting at a tech company, so I would like to think I’m saving the whales and making a lot of money. Not big law money, but more money then I could have imagined growing up in a small town in New England where if your dad was a doctor your mom could stay at home and you lived in a big house. Biglaw didn’t exist where I grew up.

And yet I'm still advising my kids to look at SLACs. When they save the world, you'll know who to thank.


How many graduates have SLACs produced over the past centuries, yet exactly zero of them have saved the world. It remains unsaved to this day. Think about it.


Who do you think teaches your kids, at all levels from pre-k to college and beyond?

Who do you think produces all the entertainment you love to consume?

Who do you think runs the museums you love to go visit?

Who do you think is discovering the vaccines that will save your and your kid's life some day?

Who do you think is working on figuring out how to deal with climate change?

Who do you think is designing the goods you love to buy?

And never mind the SLAC graduates and what jobs they get. If everyone aspired to big law and finance type jobs our society would fall apart. A healthy society needs people who will do a whole spectrum of jobs, from manual labor to intellectual labor. These kinds of threads get so tiresome. If making money is your top priority in life, fine. But stop acting as if you're superior to people who don't earn 500k+ a year. Those people are doing jobs that make your life better. It's hard to say that about the people who earn 500k+ a year, that what they do makes the lives of the rest of us any better.

I regret to inform you that your work is more akin to killing whales than saving them. Go read Vivek Ramaswamy‘s work on ESG to understand why.

And if they didn't teach (you seem to be sneering at them because of those schools and degrees) who else would do it? You'd have to stay at home to teach your kids if no one entered the teaching profession.

If my kids’ teachers went to SLACs I would be stunned that they paid $320k to become public school teachers.

SLACS give excellent scholarships.

Are you not grateful that someone decided to take up the teaching profession even though you disdain it because of how little it earns? What would you do if all the teachers in your kid's school quit to find higher paying jobs?

I'd take a bright humble person all day long. Many ivy kids have huge egos, a chip on their shoulder, and a sense of entitlement that really grates on my humble Midwestern roots. But being Midwestern, I smile, thank them for the interview, and fill the position with someone else.


Ugh. I hate Midwesterners who have chips on the shoulders about people from the NE who went to good colleges. I’ve worked with several people like you. People from the Midwest who went to state colleges who somehow think they are morally superior people because they are from the Midwest. And yes, I noticed that you discriminate and hiring against people who went to anything other than a large state school, preferably in favor of Midwestern state schools. You need to get over this. Be honest, it has made me now be wary of working for people who went to Midwestern state schools and of up hiring them.

I think commuting my company to SBTI goals and moving our products to the cloud to mi kids the use of data centers in addition to pushing conversations about how to use predictive analytics to better inform climate risk modeling for P&C insurers in addition to writing about it in an ESG report that follows multiple frameworks counts. You can read whatever BS you want to though.

+1 I live in a southern state with plenty of people who went to state schools. For whatever reason it's the Midwesterners who are like this.

I think you are proving a lot of points here. But maybe not the ones you intend to prove.

Sorry PP is right. If you had something substantive to say, you would have instead of spouting meaningless industry language. You might has well say you file TPS reports
