[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think georgetown took a hit generations ago when it became easier and more acceptable for Catholics to go to secular schools. I used to joke it was the Irish Catholic Harvard. It broke my mom’s heart a little when I turned it down. And it’s alumni just haven’t been as financially loyal as some of the other top schools—-perhaps because they were planning on sending their kids to ivies. [/quote] Georgetown is much more selective now though, so I don't think that broadening of applicants to Georgetown and more Catholics looking elsewhere was a net "hit." Sadly, I would say that discrimination based on religion did probably adversely affect Georgetown and its graduates over several generations. If nothing else, the Varsity Blues scandal does show how some very rich people really value the Georgetown name for their kids :lol: [/quote]
