[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is OP saying they are at Taylor, or is that someone else responding?[/quote]

Someone else I think. We are from Taylor but I’m like 90% sure most of the parents aren’t from Harvard… maybe some UVA but all I’ve met are from UmD and Penn State etc [/quote]

How do you even know where the other parents in your kid's elementary school went to college? This comes up in casual conversation? [/quote]

Status-obsessed strivers love to bring this stuff up in conversations.[/quote]

You're wrong. I went to a status school, and I promise you I never bring it up. I often deflect even when asked directly.

This is VERY typical behavior by the way with people who went to my college. [/quote]

No you didn't.[/quote]
I’m a NP but come on. You’ve never noticed that when asked where they went to college, Harvard grads say “in Boston”?  A lot more people deflect than you might think.[/quote]

That person outed themselves as knowing no actual people who went to HYP or comparable schools, or else they would have known this. They just have pre conceived notions, probably based on Andy Barnard on the Office! [/quote]

Well, in some ways Andy was on point…[/quote]

you wouldn't know, because that's your only exposure to what you think Ivy League is. [/quote]
