[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An NCS alum now at Dartmouth wrote this woe-is-me op-ed about how being a legacy is sooooo hard:

I was planning on having my DD apply to NCS and the other Big 3, but this is making me reconsider. Does the extreme privilege of these environments breed students this insufferable?[/quote]

OP are you jealous much??? I think you are a low class ass for posting this making fun of a still teen. Please get a life and do the rest of us a favor and do not apply to private. I get what she is saying as I went from public to private and there was a very distinct difference and private opened up an entire new world and places people summered together and same clubs and towns and whatnot. Clearly you don’t get it. [/quote]

She is a legal adult who was stupid enough to publish this with her name attached. Sorry, but consequences. [/quote]

Oooh you are so scary - what consequences having a bunch of jealous wackos trash her on here? Her writing is excellent I can see why she was admitted to an Ivy and maybe you or your daughter were not and now you find it necessary to trash her on here? [/quote]

NP: Talk about trashing. Yikes! You sound way more trash talky than PP. Making up insults about her child? Seriously? OP questioned extreme privilege based on a public opinion article.  Sounds like a viable question.  Your vitriolic response-- Blech.[/quote]

No some posters are being quite cruel to the writer. I just read the article and she said it was HER experience and HER perspective. Read the title. It is HER views on being a legacy. I don't see any issue with her article. She says herself that she is privileged and should not feel this way but that she still does. Give her a break she is young still. [/quote]
