[quote=Anonymous]I'm an STA fan but that kind of rhetoric is dated. It's not particularly WASPy; doesn't have a lock on Establishment kids; and NO SECONDARY SCHOOL in the country is a "magic escalator" anymore--college admissions has changed irrevocably. STA has a great physical location (the view of the Cathedral is spectacular), has some neat traditions, gives boys an excellent education, and its alums generally emerge with life-long friendships, but . . . Many of those things can also be said about other excellent independent schools in this area. Nothing wrong with being excited about it or wanting to go there, though--it's a great place. But though it looks like Hogwarts it's not actually magical![/quote]
