I'm talking about university education here. Where the hell does the clutching at straws "99% of children in the world" argument come into it ?

Next you'll tell that anything below Ivy league isn't considered university and kids should've known better and used their damn head™ really hard to be born in better families to be able to get real university™ education.

I know professors from across the spectrum and I most certainly do not consider Ivy League should be placed on a pedestal.

That is all I am willing to say on that subject. Let's not drift off into personal attacks, please.
