<p>The comments are even better than the article IMHO.</p>

<p>As a relatively new participant on CC, I am curious if most of the membership consists of parents either went to relatively elite to elite colleges or became aware of them such that they are sensitized to want them for their children AND applicants/potential applicants who are children of the above. In short, does the activity on CC parallel the themes in the article/article comments?</p>
