[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]University of Southern California. Too large. Way too much emphasis on Greek life. Absolutely lives up to its nickname of University of Spoiled Children.[/quote]

I don't think it will easily shake the stink of the Varsity Blues scandal with Aunt Becky's overprivileged youtuber daughter.[/quote]

Smart rich and attractive USC families don’t give a darn what malcontent proles think of them. USC is elite and will become a top 20 if not too 15 university in the near future.[/quote]

Lots of Olivia Jades and Gigi Caruso’s. [/quote]

Opposite situation here. DH and I both went to small LAC / small regional university respectively, where we were both first gen students. Neither school is one that is ever mentioned on this site. We had similar experiences: excellent education, close relationships with peers and faculty that remain intact to this day. Both of us went on to graduate school and do well in our fields. I am involved as an alum with my school, DH is not. I could not conceive of a better college experience. DS and DD turn their noses up at our schools (it's their decision, not ours, and we haven't pressured them, but have said "look at our experiences; we hope you find a place you love so much). They (especially DD who is older, hs sophomore) have sights set on T20 schools. Time will tell!  [/quote]
