I dont know I have been in Cali at UCLA this summer and have gotten nothing but "you went to Dartmouth, you must be smart", and this is coming from UCLA kids.

<p>Let it go because it is not unusual. I have live in NYC my whole life and when my D told people she were attending Dartmouth , some gave her a look of "you poor thing" others said where is that? People are most familiar with their regional schools. </p>
<p>It does not take anything away from the school. There are many stellar colleges and universities on the west coast that if some one said they were attending Whitman, Evergreen or Reed, some one else would respond where's that?</p>
