[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCUM is filled with prole strivers who are status obsessed. That's why. Most confident rich people don't give a damn about the Ivy League.[/quote] Sure, that's why they try to find workarounds to buy their kids in. Les Wexner sent his kids to Harvard, Jamie Dimon sent his kids to Duke, Stephen Mandel sent his kids to Dartmouth, and so on and so forth.[/quote] Ever notice these rich connected people, including POTUS, never try to get their kids into MIT? It's because they would likely not survive their first semester.[/quote] MIT and Caltech are outliers. They are about as close to true meritocracy as you get in the U.S.[/quote]
