[quote=Anonymous]I wear my prestigious college sweats at home for a lazy day or i might wear the sweatshirt for errands or a dog walk if I forget to change. I admit that I do feel self conscious wearing it out and about, partly because of the fancy school name but also partly because sweats in general seem sloppy.

I'm mostly worried about people thinking that I'm an old money snob, and then my self consciousness sends me into that whole "yes I went to that school, but I was on scholarship, blah blah blah," when I know deep inside that no one worthwhile would care one way or another.

In general, it would be wasteful to throw away good comfy clothes just to replace them with no name ones. I'll wait till they wear out, which may take a while since they don't get much use.

On the flip side, it's fun to run into people, generally recent grads, much older alumni, or proud parents of current students, who are decked out. It's a nice entree into a conversion with a person i wouldn't have meet otherwise.[/quote]
