[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious about this person who hates middlebury SO much they invest all this time peppering every post on mid ever - or even a mid comment in another thread. This person must search "Middlebury" every morning and launch into it.

It's weird because if a kid is rejected, you might hold a grudge for a minute but who cares.

And if your kid went to a school and didnt love it, again - that's not such a big deal. Happens a lot. Who really cares.

So I can't really figure it out. Maybe they themselves interviewed for a job and didnt get it? [/quote]

If you paid the average person $1,000 to tell you about Middlebury,  they'd get zero. Hiring managers barely know.

It's a small school in Vermont.

Not worth the numerous threads.

Maybe one booster?[/quote]
Yeah, I'm sure the hiring managers at Goldman Sachs (president and COO, John Waldron, Middlebury) and Morgan Stanley (CEO, Ted Pick, Middlebury) have absolutely no idea what Middlebury is. [/quote]

The troll has never heard of those places. When you are living in your mom's single wide in an exurb of Des Moines, firms like that don't come up in conversation.[/quote]

Are you a typical Middlebury student and/or grad? Based on your condescending post, I'd rather work in a business with the person from Des Moines than a firm that would hire you.[/quote]

Other than a few friends who went there and a few kids I vaguely know who are there now, I have no affiliation. But I have zero tolerance for people who come here to ignorantly bash other schools, particularly when they clearly have no idea what they are talking about. I am all for presenting negative facts in a constructive way as honesty is important and nothing is perfect, but these low class ignoramuses are just too much.

I'm not sure what they get out of it. Unfortunately I think there is a growing group of people whose sole joy in life is making others unhappy. Which is truly sad.

I know there is some content moderation here and I wish the mods would delete more of these terrible posts. They detract from what is otherwise often a useful message board.

But I digress.[/quote]

PP here. Ok. Thank you for sharing, and I agree the school bashing is over the top. As an aducator, I don't like put-foens of those who live in rural and/or more modest or impoverished areas.  [/quote]
