sorry, no harm intended. i did not mean to come off as arrogant and if i did i apologize, seriously. did not mean to hit a nerve.
Vlad:
I am very normal and middle class and if you met me you would not think i was arrogant -- i was just making some stupid comments. you don't need to take everything so seriously. i am one tiny opinion in a huge universe and i just say what comes to mind. and i am actually a very nice guy.
"I suspect that we are raising a generation of elitist club members--doesn't bode well for our country"
seems like top institutions are actually becoming a lot LESS elitist than before. (columbia used to be only male and i don't think there were many minorities at all) also, you're dealing with a extremely small percentage of the overall population when referring to those in top schools. a whole generation of elitists? hmm... and now that i think of it, weren't george w and kerry both members of skull and bones? elitism can't be that new.
"I'm sure there are CC students who are capable of giving Columbia a bad name...it depends on the individual"
you're totally right. i think i just had some bad experiences and i was extending it. apologies. menunno -- please disregard my comments.
