<p>I read a bunch of posts here. Yeah I agree, most people who do wear shirts are just insane.</p>
<p>But then again one time I saw an asian girl wearing an OXFORD t-shirt. Took me a week to figure out that it was OXFORD MISSISSIPPI and not the U.K oxford.</p>
<p>@Daxlo Yeah, this is true, even when you get over the bridge and into the city, it’s still kinda run-down (graffiti, chains over old parking garages, stuff like that), even around pretty nice buildings until you get to say, Peachtree Street? Mid-town’s weird like too, some totally trashed buildings about a block from sone billion dollar museums lol. But that’s what makes Atlanta unique, I suppose(:</p>
<p>My friend wears Stanford brand stuff because her sister is at Stanford. I wouldn’t care except she always says how her sister is “the Stanford one” and all that so it seems like she’s showing off about the prestige of her sister’s school?
Also, a girl at my old school worn a lot of Oxbridge clothes after she came back from the UK because she wants to go to Oxford…
It’s not that I think these two have no chance at the schools, I’m just not into the “hail prestigious university brand things” act.</p>
<p>But I’m a bit of a hypocrite since I’d give my college name apparel to my little sister and parents (if they asked) when I go to college. Just so they can think of me. Or have it to wear to bed. Or whatever. I’d just hate if they kept saying “oh look at my shirt my daughter/sister well she’s the [insert university here] child/girl” like holy cow you must be so superior since you have something that says… say… Harvard from your Harvard girl.</p>
<p>I don’t see anything wrong with it. One of my good friends wears an MIT shirt all the time. And does it really matter? What should matter is attitude.</p>
<p>I wore a UVA sweatshirt to school every day this entire year. The entire school thought I was on drugs… Now that I’m in, it’s the UVA sweatshirt, belt, and tshirt…</p>
<p>The pettiness of some of the attitudes here is something else. It’s a doggone tshirt with lettering! If you take that to mean the wearer feels entitled to be admitted to that school, then you’re the one with the problem. I wear my favorite baseball team’s jersey occasionally. Not one of you will mistake me for a pro baseballer. </p>
<p>Why do you think you have the right to enforce who wears whose college gear?</p>
<p>Someone posted basically “So and so wears a Stanford shirt – and she’s not very smart.” Don’t you even understand the smarminess of that kind of sentiment? Geez.</p>
<p>Of course I know that. But how people can be ticked off or snicker at others because of the supposed audacity to wear a Harvard TShirt really speaks poorly of them, not the shirt wearer. And I friggen went to an HYP!</p>
