Is Penn really full of rich snobs?

45 percenter - agreed, there are likeminded students at all of these schools. On that note, I’m sure that at Wharton, students can find other students who are extremely passionate about non-profit startups, or econ majors can find other econ majors at Penn who are interested in econometrics and theory, rather than just the application of econ to a particular jobs. I don’t doubt there are many - perhaps hundreds - of students like this on campus.

<p>Wrong. People here don’t talk about anything remotely intellectual, let along have intellectual interests. To be very honest, Penn’s atmosphere is more reminiscent of a state school. </p>

<p>In fact, a decent amount of students have expressed great frustration regarding the enormously anti-intellectual atmosphere here. See the following DP article with comments from other students:</p>
