[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And are you much smarter or better or lead a more meaningful, productive life thsn the non-Ivy peers with whom you work?

My Ivy educated wife sneered aboutt the kid working the counter at Enterprise who just graduated from GWU. I'm sorry, but what is wrong with that? I've always been impressed with Enterprise as a company and the service they provide.

My first job out of college was in retail and then I moved to the Hill. Twenty years later, I have a satisfying career in international affairs, have traveled the world and love what I do.

Of course, I think her comment about the young man at Enterprise was more a dig at me and more expression of her insecurity don't since she perceives I have been successful even without the Ivy degree. She graduated twenty years ago and still drops s humble brag into virtually every conversation about where she went to school. Does anyone really care where you went twenty years on? [/quote]

GWU is the most expensive college in the country. I'd be pissed if the only job my kid could get with a degree from there was a minimum wage one that didn't even require a college degree. [/quote]
