[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe on their work resume then can have an asterisk next to their degree from state school With the footnote: *accepted to JHU, UPenn, Georgetown & Duke :lol: :lol: [/quote] When some snobby Ivy alum neighbors looked down their nose when they found out I attended my large state university, I wish I was wearing a sweatshirt that had that asterisk. I was #8 (back when there was actual true rank) out of 687 kids at my Fairfax Co high school, state champ varsity sport all 4 years, student body officer, high SAT score, etc etc My parents would only allow me to apply in-state. Rich people don’t understand we can’t all afford Ivy/top private tuition and that limits our choices. But, hey, we have the same lifestyle now and equivalent careers. [/quote]
