[quote=Anonymous] I generally agree with OP, with the caveat that Ivy League schools are a lottery for anyone these days, and that what s/he writes is more appropriate for second tier universities. Now if parents wish to send their kids to excellent, academic private schools just for the intellectual environment, or for the social connections, I think that's a perfectly valid reason... as long as they can afford to. I really don't think there is much return on investment to bleeding yourself dry just for those schools, and I seriously question the judgment of families on financial aid at these types of institutions. There are better ways to get ahead in life, both intellectually and socially, if you are on a lower income. [/quote]
