[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I've always supposed it's a direct reflection of cost of living. Wealthy, educated parents see how expensive it is to raise a kid in a very high COL location, and get worried their kid won't be able to replicate the same success unless they have a particular brand name on their diploma. [/quote] I know this is so crazy, right! My degree is from the Univsersity of Oklahoma and I got here (wealthy UMC) without Harvard. I just don’t see how my kids need Harvard. It will never replace drive and ambition. Plus, coming from a place that isn’t even on people’s radar has been great - everyone thinks I’m “down to Earth”, “grounded”, “easy to get along with”, “unintimidating”. The stereotypes have helped me in a highly competitive world. [/quote] Did you like the University of Oklahoma? [/quote]
