[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posters on here are so deep in the bubble they have lost it.  [b]Any one educated at Brown or Rice or Duke or any of the others on here has an elite education[/b].   Get out a little so you can see that.[/quote]

These people are hypsm fans. [b]Only hypsm will do for their sick puppies[/b]. They are really fragile people. [/quote]

Are you saying that everyone should get a trophy?
Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT [HYPSM] are the crème de la crème. The Elite of the Elites. Is this a controversial statement?
Nonetheless, Brown, Rice and Duke are phenomenal universities and considered elite on many lists.
What is your beef?
BTW, I am in neither the HYPSM or bust gang, nor the elite institution or bust gang.[/quote]

Once again for the older folks hard of hearing in the back:

[b]Wiki[/b] on verifiability issues with HYPS, HYPSM, and HYPSMC:

“As things stand, no sources are provided to show any significant widespread use of any of these initialisms. I find it very hard to imagine a guidance counsellor saying "if you want to get into one of the aitch why pee ess em cee schools...." The verifiability policy notes that "The burden of evidence lies with the editors who have made an edit or wish an edit to remain." So far, those editors have declined to do this.”

Now, all the old folks, take a seat and be quiet.

Did you cite Wikipedia and was it accepted in your PhD dissertation?
If not, let's avoid citing them as your authority.[/quote]
