[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who go to Princeton seem to love Princeton more than the other two.[/quote]

I chatted with Michelle Obama once and she disagreed. And my ex always regretted that her parents made her choose Princeton over Cornell. The eating club things seems awful to me, so I'm on team not-Princeton unless your kid is sure it's his first choice.[/quote]

The experience of current students is rather different - at Princeton, Cornell, and Columbia - than those of students at those schools in the early 80s when Michelle Obama was there.  Certainly at least in terms of raw numbers there are far more minority students and students from lower-income families on campus.

In any event, I doubt that she weighed in on Princeton compared to Cornell or Columbia.  The Obama and Robinson families appear not to have soured entirely on the Ivies:  Malia went off to Harvard and Craig's daughter (Michelle's niece) just graduated from Princeton in 2018. [/quote]
