<p>^^I have no problem with anyone who can afford it to spend that much money on a college they really wanted to attend. My problem is it appears that simply because they went to an expensive top private school that they are better than others who went to a top public. It’s this condescending tone that I have read online here for a number of years involving Duke students that just rubs me the wrong way. I rarely have seen the same type of behavior from HYPSM students who also frequent these boards.</p>
