[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS just saw some friends from HS who go to Princeton, Duke and Dartmouth. He reports that all three (boys) say that the only people they hang with are either legacies or athletes. All three are legacies. I don’t find this at all surprising as kids from similar backgrounds tend to hang together but it’s also so disappointing and telling about those schools. FWIW, my son goes to a big public and yes, his friends are mostly white but not mostly legacies or athletes. [/quote] FYI - Duke is not in the Ivy League.[/quote] dp.. maybe not, but DC's friend at Duke said something similar to OP. A lot of rich kids who join greek houses. The friend said some of the public HS friends they had are so much smarter than a lot of the rich kids at Duke that this friend hangs with.[/quote]
