[quote=Anonymous]I know the kind of men OP is talking about because I grew up with them, went to school with them, went to an Ivy with them, even dated them, and laughed at them as they marched off en masse to finance and consulting jobs after graduation. And now 20 years later, most of them are happily married to great women, have great children, and great and comfortable lives.

I'm pragmatic enough to know that buried in that distaste for "bro" is certainly some resentment and jealousy mainly because bros do tend to go on to have successful and attractive lives, which tends to happen to men who early on figure out how to get things done and to go out into the world and get what they want. The dynamics of "brohood" fosters a lot of internal networking and advice that really does help bros get established in life early on, and that dynamic can seem exclusionary to non-bros. There is a clash of values playing out here.

OP, have you considered Vanderbilt? I'd add it to your list. Bigger than a LAC but there's virtues to it.
