[quote=Anonymous]I am on a small team at work. I have a degree from Penn. Another member of my team went to Penn State. A third teammate who lives in an UMC suburb of NYC had a child applying early decision to a different Ivy, so should have been reasonably aware of such things. He very confidently said that Penn State is in Philly and clearly go them confused - gave him a chance to self-correct but he dug in. I deferred to my Penn State colleague to correct him so as not to sound like a total snob. I am a bit of a snob. And I do judge people on these things. If you want to succeed in corporate America you will likely cross paths with people from these schools so should have some basic awareness of them - don't need to be an expert. And if you don't know, fess up rather than faking it - it is very easy to tell.[/quote]
