[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had an original copy and it was my bible :) But it was never meant to have anything to do with academics for crying out loud. It was tennis and finishing and boarding schools and Speery topsides, monograms, LL Bean duck boots, duck phones, etc Sweet Briar almost shut down completely from lack of funds and enrollment lags. Hopkins is all female too. Let me guess : you are the same poster that turned to Vogue magazine for a historical article on “prestige” colleges (a fashion magazine) and now are going to a preppy [b]parody book[/b]. I suggest you look for academic literature. [/quote] In that the Preppy Handbook lacks any underlying literary work as its implicit basis, I wouldn't classify it as a parody.[/quote] DP. It's a parody of Prep Culture. Good grief. The pedanticism is exhausting. [/quote]
