[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Duke and my best friend at Duke chose Duke over Princeton and Stanford.  I didn’t find this out until years later and was a little shocked in that it was a bit unusual even in the late 90s.  He said he wanted fun and Duke as way more fun back then.  He had a blast in college and loved his undergrad experience.  He went on to HLS and is a successful lawyer. He was genuinely a smart person and wasn’t so worried about his career at 18 and made healthy normal kid choices and continued to do so at Duke, [b]drinking at parties[/b] and studying during the week.  Didn’t seem to hold him back on life, suffering his Duke choice.  And we have an incredibly tight circle from Duke and we get together and watch games and text about it, etc.  The Duke hate does fuel a sense of loyalty and belonging that isn’t quite replaceable by attending Harvard.  Go to Harvard for grad school like my friend. [/quote]

Fun=drinking

Such a prevalent mindset.  Why isn't this questioned?

Fun was probably the sex part and kids mostly drinking in order to hopefully get to have sex.  It’s called being 18-22.  And the alternative universe of sitting in your room staring at your phone playing video games seems to likewise have some real downsides.   Just sayin.  [/quote]
