<p>“Ya’ll are nuts”.</p>
<p>There’s a lot of nuts then, over 11,000 views to this thread, and not even at the 24 hour mark yet!</p>
<p>The Krispy Kreme Donut Challenge is held at both of my kids big state u’s too…just in case anyone thought it was only for those at really smart snobby places.</p>
<p>::munching Krispy Kreme glazed donuts bought when the “Hot Donuts” sign was on::</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Yup.</p>
<p>Please list all schools that have a donut-run challenge. That would be SO appealing to ds.</p>
<p>

<p>That’s the thing…if they (the parents? does not seem to be the D) are looking for a certain type of student body in terms of “wealthy snobs” or some such…the three schools mentioned may not get them the highest proportion of that type on campus. The three schools, MIT, Princeton, Stanford, have very liberal financial aid and purposely create a very diverse student body from a variety of backgrounds (including public and private schools) and differing levels of socio-economic status. If one is seeking just a certain background in the student body, there are OTHER schools where they may find a higher proportion of a certain type. BUT, alas…their conundrum…they seem to be seeking the most prestigious schools…Ivy or Stanford/MIT and thus they cannot have their cake and eat it too (to keep to the food theme going here!).</p>
<p>Son particpates at PackMom’s son’s school were it started: NC State.</p>
<p>He has done so since high school. They don’t do it at his school, he drags his buddies all south for the festivities!!</p>

<p>I’m really confused now.</p>
<p>Just got back from a performance of The Importance of Being Earnest. Wow wee, how very appropriate for our times.</p>
<p>Re the “rich kid school” list: surprised to see NYU so low, based on what I’ve heard. Does it take into account average debt upon graduation?</p>
<p>This should serves as a reminder that if you post some specific awards on the internet it can be traced to you.
Please note that I did not post any link or videotube of the daugther. Only the quote that was on her webiste so that the parent can tell the daugher to remove it.
I did not mean to out her daughter but the fact their parents post information that a random stranger can google and deduct information is a serious problem.</p>
<p>Yeah, I just noticed now that there are missing posts… from yesterday. And I think we all know that anywhere we post we leave an IP address trail. But the OP has left much more behind with her posts. Your point? And your info does not indicate your position or that you have even posted before…</p>
<p>Are y’all amazed that this thread hasn’t been locked?</p>
<p>Re post 329:</p>
<p>Mom and Dad post here.</p>
<p>I feel badly for Daughter if she is on CC and reads their posts, or if her friends or schoolmates are on CC and recognize her or her parents; something tells me her parents probably make comments along the lines of their postings to their friends and acquaintances.</p>
<p>^^Got it. 10 char</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I wouldn’t waste too much emotion feeling sorry for the daughter. If she was admitted to those three schools, she has a lot going for her…I bet she’ll be perfectly capable of rising above her mom’s attitudes. (And if she has any rebel in her at all, one day she’ll bring home a boy who is wildly “inappropriate” for some reason or another.)</p>
<p>I don’t see any links to a student’s website here. Did I miss something?</p>
<p>(just want an answer to that question…please do not give me the website, thanks)</p>
<p>There was no link.</p>

<p>*Where have all the snobbies gone?
Long time passing.
Where have all the snobbies gone?
Since yesterday.
Where have all the snobbies gone?
Elbows need rubs, every one.
How will we hob nob now?
How will we hob nob now?</p>
<p>Where is the hob nobbing now?
Long time passing.
Where is the hob nobbing now?
Since yesterday.
Where is the hob nobbing now?
Greased my 'bows for nothing.
Please bring my snobbies back.
Please bring my snobbies back.*</p>

<p>The website mentioned in the now missing posts has been altered since yesterday and the banner that announced certain early acceptance info has been removed. Clearly the family knows we know.</p>
