[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools that feel “strivery” are annoying. Doesn’t mean the education isn’t just fine but not what they comport themselves to be. Examples: U chicago (while a good school for sure, the kids and school feel like they are trying too too hard) , Tulane, Wash U, NYU. [/quote] Yeah, because heaven forbid any school that wasn’t prized a century ago improve itself and become prestigious. Same for people, if you weren’t born into wealth and privilege, don’t bother trying to earn your way up. ‘Striver’ is a word the insecure elite use to close ranks and protect their privilege. But guess, what—institutions change. And people, too. [/quote] It’s hilarious to see parents who will do just about anything to get their kids into a “top” school (aka strivers) bash SCHOOLS for trying to be on the list of elite schools. Pot, kettle [/quote]
