<p>OMG, who cares about Ivy envy? People envy & covet what they don't have. If you choose the right school for you, then what's to envy if you know your choice is the right one for yourself? I have good friends from all the Ivies, Stanford, MIT, Michigan, UVa, Johns Hopkins, UCLA, Wesleyan, Amherst and McGill. We don't go around envying each other. We're just happy knowing that we're all smart. Now, let's go drinking!</p>
<p>This thread started out low and descended from there and so it's now closed. The really dumb posts are too numerous to cite and Breeze would do better if she didn't try to respond to them all.</p>
<p>The traffic on this board would collapse by at least 50 percent without the fixation on Ivy League schools. However, regardless of how good an institution each of these schools is, the attributes assigned to them by posters on this board often transcend simple ridiculousness.</p>
