Hey DJ PiO, if you must insist on noting that I've clearly dissed the schools you've attented or attending now, I offer my apologies on that statement.
I can see how proud and devoted of being in an ivy-league school means to you or anyone for that matter. My case in point reverts back to why should a person's source of education got to be associated with the historical age of an institution, or for their reputations. There are a lot of "shameful" incidents in Ive-League institutions which I would rather not probe into. There is no point in bickering over where you get your education from. It's how you put what you learned to good use.
I can forsee that a typical American family high with their hopes and wants for their children to attend ivy-league colleges. I, myself have considered that ages ago. The society has painted that picture of attaining more if one were to enter an Ivy-League Institution....and here we are, all struggling to get in there.....and with consideration to the number of drop-outs in the first year....all these are plain numbers.
As for the aristocrats, it's a fact that the rich are getting richer and the poor getting poorer. Since you speak on behalf of these Ivy-League Colleges carrying out Samaritian efforts to allow minorities into their school, how about those times when they decide to feel that your economic well-being is not up to their standards and that you should feel free to take a hike or a one-year leave.
For what I see, you must be from an above-average to do family, but will you be there to help out the poor and needy? When was the last time you did a good deed? Is it necessary to bring so many issues into this issue?
DJ PiO, we could argue on this as there are too many dimensions, points of view. I might not be as knowledgeble on some topics, but given the chance, I try to absorb as much as possible. Meanwhile, check out your local colleges for school fees prices. Are the fees fair for the common people? Are the banks eating off interests on these students with loans? I hate to think so, but i tend to believe I observe...
Nuff said....There are too many issues, too little time....as always....we are losing moments as we breath.......*Simile*
