<p>I was being half-facetious, but you should definitely avoid saying that one school is better than another (even if it is your own school). You also shouldn't cite U.S. News rankings as evidence.</p>
<p>beefs, it is not naive to stand up for your school or alma mater. It is naive to believe that the same enthusiasm, awe or whatever extends to folks that did not attend. </p>
<p>UCA's problem seems to be hanging out in the Boston area. There are a lot of folks that DO care intensely about ivies there. I lived there a long time and saw this repeatedly. But having lived in Chicago, DC and the west coast, I can assure you such views are confined to a small geography</p>
<p>oooh a fight. lovely.</p>
<p>beefs, I kinda get what you're saying and all. but 'man down the pub' don't give two s**ts.</p>
<p>and what is this about recruiters. you make them seem childish and impulsive! Say John Doe is being considered for a promotion to President/CEO of some big multinational corporation. What do they care whether he got his B.S. from Wharton or Arizona State U?</p>
<p>I don't think an ivy league education or ANY education for that matter is a one-way ticket to success.</p>

<p>Well if you're class of 2012 then you don't really attend it yet...</p>
<p>oh, i didnt at all say that recruiters feel the same way i do. i just said that you all seem to be defending uchicago like someone is attacking it. no one needs to prove that chicago is a top of the line, elite school. at the end of the day, the people that matter in terms of future careers will know how amazing the school is.</p>
