Well played.[/quote]

except its incorrect. Penn is light years ahead of those other two, on every single level. sorry.[/quote]

upenn = ivy
uva = nova
uchicag= midwestern with full ride for nova[/quote]

I think of UVA and UNC as closest.[/quote]

Agree. Both are southern public Ivies with beautiful campuses & lovely college towns.[/quote]

Please stop with this public Ivy nonsense.  They are good public universities and that should be enough.  It is pathetic and embarrassing to try and further burnish their image with a silly reference to the Ivy league.[/quote]

Good lord :roll:

DCUM did not coin the phrase “public Ivy” (I [i]think[/i] US News did but it is a commonly known/used term in any case).

-pp who has zero connection to any “public Ivy” & therefore no reason to try to “burnish” their image.[/quote]

You don’t have to coin a phrase for its use to be silly. Nor does it have to maintain whatever meaning it once had, if ever. I’m sure the kids at the University of Vermont don’t use this term because it’s dreadfully wannabe. (And I happen to love UVM.) [/quote]

Why are you so angry about something as benign as people using this phrase? Do you think it somehow makes your “real” Ivy degree less special?[/quote]

Not angry at all. You seem angry though. Hope you feel better. [/quote]

Uh, no, [b]you (or whoever the ridiculous “burnish their image” poster is)[/b] are definitely the one who sounds unduly angry & offended.

Good job at trying to simultaneously deflect & be condescending, though!

Yep, wasn’t the same poster. But hey, you keep being wrong. It’s cute on you. [/quote]

Thanks for proving once again how condescending you (& the other poster, I guess) are! It is not at all cute on you but I’m sure you’re used to being known as nauseatingly insufferable rather than cute anyway....

Btw, your poor reading comprehension isn’t cute either. The poster you are responding to makes it clear that s/he doesn’t assume that both posts are by the same poster (see the bolded).[/quote]

Yawn. [/quote]
