I already did explain it.

Pizzagirl introduced that phrase to describe schools that attract people because, in their circles, it's fashionable to say, "I went to X school", even if X school isn't really that great academically.

I was simply responding to her post, pointing out that I have never noticed people doing that in the Northeast and Midwest, but have noticed it in the South. Perhaps it happens in the Southwest as well, now that i think about it.
