[quote=Anonymous]I earned my bachelor's degree from Cornell and my master's from Harvard. I'm not anti-elite. I AM against: -the pressure parents and teens put on themselves to get into these schools, as if they are the be-all end-all of career success and personal satisfaction. -the notion that elite schools are the only place where one can surround him/herself with driven peers, or be taught by excellent professors. -the idea that attending an elite school is somehow going to get you into the monied East Coast "elite." If you're not born into that world, four years at an Ivy League school isn't going to get you there. -the notion that going six figures in debt for a name-brand undergraduate degree is EVER a good idea.
