[quote=Anonymous]I am often puzzled at US-centered education systems where the brand is supposed to mean something and carry a corresponding price tag. I feel I am a much more balanced human being because I did not go to a snobby school but I speak 7 languages fluently, have lived in several cultures very successfully (was well integrated and functioned like a local) and have a very broad and uplifting outlook on life, and a fascinating career in international development. Harvard or Stanford, or the likes of them, could not have given me that. I was lucky to be sponsored in a US graduate program and lucky enough to graduate completely debt-free, and start my career with a positive bank account number. People need to stop obsessing about this type of stuff and carry on with much more meaningful pursuits to better this world.[/quote]
