[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in New England and was very aware of and had friends at all the ivy schools, seven sisters and other prestigious east coast schools as well as places like UCLA and Stanford etc. but to be honest schools like Chicago and Duke and Vanderbilt and Northwestern were never on my radar. Doesn’t mean I’m stupid. [/quote] Exactly. I was born in California before the rise of Duke as a basketball power. It was never mentioned. When I came East, nobody talked about Stanford much until Chelsea Clinton decided to go. It is many times harder to get into these elite schools than when we were kids. It's making people obsessive. One thing I have seen in different regions of the U.S. is local rich people going to the state flagship. These people and their social circles are not Ivy-obsessed. Virginia is somewhat like this with UVA.[/quote]
