[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The patriarch of the Kennedy family (Joe Kennedy) was a genius and a Harvard man, he sure as heck wasn't going to sacrifice his sons to Catholic school education - they all went to Harvard [ and two went to UVA law].  Being Catholic is good politics in Massachusetts, but you'll never break the glass ceiling if you take your Catholicism too seriously.[/quote]

I'm curious about the thinking behind this post. I'm not trying to pick a fight. I'm curious.

What is it about Catholics choosing BC or Georgetown or Holy Cross over Ivies that bothers anyone?

Now I recognize that a goodly proportion of the people on this forum are Ivy-league crazy. It is for them the holy grail and achieving it for their kids (and themselves) is worth all the pressure they apply, all the thinking and planning they do and all the money they spend. It must be hard for them to accept that not everyone feels the same way.

What you are saying above is that a Harvard education is clearly superior than a Georgetown one. My life experience doesn't bear that out.[/quote]
