[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have yet to meet one person who graduated from GU that I have an ounce of respect for.

It funny you say that because I have had similar experience - although I would say I have been underwhelmed.[/quote]

But they hold themselves in very very high esteem. 
The school should do something to tone the attitude of its graduates down - it's repulsive to others.
The typical graduate says 'I went to GU and then there's a pause and you're supposed to bow, clap or throw money or something. All three I guess.[/quote]

Georgetown is the dream school for the student council try-hard dorks who lacked self-awareness. The few peers I know who are GU alums didn't even apply to Ivies. It was all about GU.[/quote]

It's the catholic harvard[/quote]

Yes! This describes it perfectly. I have a family member--by marriage--who came from money, went on to graduate and turn that money into even more money, and now thinks his riches should get him a seat at the cool kids table. But he's still just a completely unself-aware dork.[/quote]
