[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do we have incessant threads like this?

It seems like HYPSM should be secure and not needing to dunk on anyone else. My experience is they don’t IRL.

Top non-Ivy schools trying to legitimize and bump up status so agenda is to dunk on non-HYP ivies.

Berkeley, UofM, UCLA, UVA, UNC want to overcome public label and be legitimized.

The amount of Emory, WashU, Wake level schools that are so insecure for no reason. They are great schools, I hate reading threads tearing each other down to be the best of that range.

And I’m sure a million more examples. 
My sense it is the very top and then the schools outside of T75 that are quite content and secure with their positions, and the rest just come off so desperate.

Yep, it wouldn’t even occur to me to jockey for position by ragging on other colleges. The closest thing to negative that I’ve said about any school is that my own HYPSM alma mater may not have been the best fit for me personally.[/quote]
