Life at an Ivy League

<p>Collegehelp, it’s a winless argument. I get what you’re saying and there’s a truth within it (though to suggest it’s inherently more than other schools is beyond reason). Having gone to school in the Ivy League, you of all people should have figured out the difference between perception and reality. </p>

<p>Does that Dartmouth professor suing her students for disagreeing with her embody this Ivy League superiority? What about the president of Columbia embarrassing his school and our nation by caving into media pressure and insulting the Iranian president while introducing him? </p>

<p>On that same note, the president of our nation has proven his minimal capacity for philosophical and nuanced insight into complex issue despite a background in what many perceive to be the greatest education one could hope to achieve at Harvard and Yale. On top of that, Cornell’s got Ann Coulter’s profound expositions on what makes someone a “f*ggot”.</p>

<p>I know these are just individuals, but let’s stop with this inherent superiority track. It’s not necessarily true across the board - not even at Harvard.</p>
