To be fair, my basic argument about life patents of nobility applies to all higher education degrees, not just Ivy League degrees. And to be fairer the value employers place on degrees is starting to diminish. And to be even fairer, people are starting to question the relative value of Ivy

I do partly agree with you Jed. It is not the school or the education that is privileged. The statements from those institutions are lifted up on a pedestal because they already are accredited. I think people often select this or that school or education because they want some of the glory and
