[quote=Anonymous]I am over 50, went to Yale and was true middle class, not the DCUM version of middle class. College was paid for, but just barely - it wasn’t quite as expensive as it is today. When I would go home and hang out with people who were not in top colleges or - gasp - not in college at all, you could feel the chill in the room if you said you went to Yale, even though they were the ones who asked. One guy said that he presumed I’d look down on him because he wasn’t in a “fancy school”. I just wanted to meet and talk to nice people. So yeah, I went to school “in Connecticut”, or I just talk about “when I was in college.” Even to this day, if I drop the Y word it’s because someone else is being a pretentious a-hole and needs to come down a peg.
