You don’t have to be in HYPS to take pride in your school and tell people to face reality. You don’t have to be in HYPS to have someone you don’t like. You don’t have to be in HYPS to say what you want in the internet. There is no rule that says you must crush your own spirit in face of HYPS or worship those schools. Cornell rightfully has a reputation of being one of the best colleges in the world with its strength in engineering, sciences, hotel, and numerous other majors across the field. It has countless other merits, from atmosphere, surroundings, prestige, diversity in both students and course offerings, # of nobel laureates and excellent professors, employment opportunities, research opportunities, financial aid, networks and connections… just to name a few of the central ideas. Just let this thread go to rest if you truly want to stop talking about it.
