US News-Induced Inferiority Complex!

Could you guys please stop bashing other schools to put Georgetown on a pedestal? This is definitely revealing of an inferiority complex. The truth is… Georgetown’s endowment of $1 billion cannot compete against that of many other top schools, including the ones you were accepted to. Georgetown is inferior to them in many ways (as I’m sure you know) and not just because of US News. However, despite Georgetown’s shortcomings, you chose it for a reason… maybe because you like the environment there, or the chance to get close to DC or whatever. There’s no shame in that. Congratulations and move on!
