| The reality is that there are going to be some snobby people at the ivies, and there will be some very down to earth people at the ivies as well. In fact, i guess this trait is not exclusive to only ivies, but this applies to any other top schools, such as Duke, Stanford, Northwestern, U of Chicago, Georgetown, MIT, etc. But, I guess what collegehelp was saying, although I wouldn't necessarily agree, is that the ivies might have an aura for sophistication, tradition, and other unique atmospheres due to these schools' ages, buildings, locations, lack of focus on sports, tradition, etc. |
