[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is weird in how so many people more about where you went to HS rather than college.  But most of those people are part of the Catholic mafia.[/quote]

Even weirder is that many of the posters on these threads either deny it exists or insist that its wrong-headed.

It certainly exists especially among the native Catholics.

And its not judging people so much as it is searching for common ground or the lack of it. [/quote]

If people are concluding there is a "lack of common ground" because another Catholic did not go to Gonzaga or St. John's or Prep (or what have you); or that it is some sort of betrayal not to send one's child to the same school; or that where your own parents sent you from age 14-18 is more important than where YOU chose to go to college or grad school; it sure sounds a lot like judging.  And while it occurs, the idea that it is true for "everyone in DC" is silly.  I know many native Washingtonians, even some fellow parishioners (gasp!), who don't define themselves or others that way.  But yes, some do.[/quote]
