Anyone who *didn't* go to Harvard or Yale check in here

[underpants]

I just want to make sure I am not the only one

:eyes:

It seems like I am sometimes these days.

[KitchenWitch]

1. I didn't

[Shell Beau]

2. I was accepted into all of the Ivy league schools, but

you know, I just wanted a regular education! :P

[motely36]

3. Oh, pleae...

I went to both!

:sarcasm:

[northzax]

16. scarily enough, drop the sarcasm

tag, and you get close to my happy hour crowd.

I turned down Harvard for graduate school, does that count?

[BikeWriter]

4. Me, too.

[TimeChaser]

5. Me!

Well, it'd be more correct for me to say "I'm not going to Harvard or Yale" since I'm still a student.

[tjwmason]

6. I don't like these modern places pretending to be proper universities.

Anything founded post 1450 is dodgy to my mind. :P

[MN ChimpH8R]

7. I got my BA from the University of Minnesota

though I did go to Harvard Law. Does that count?

[WeRQ4U]

10. You are excluded.

I graduated from the University of North Dakota and went to law school at Lewis and Clark law School in Portland. Now THAT counts.

Although some schmuck, when I was visiting the school, told me that L&C was known as the "harvard of the west". I thought to myself 1) what the fuck does THAT mean and 2) If there were such a thing, that place would NOT be it. lol.

[yvr girl]

8. I've been to Harvard

I didn't attend the school, but I drove through the campus. :hi:

[Mrs.Matcom]

39. Hey, Me too!!

Nice place, big bucks!!

[MissB]

9. You're the only one

named underpants. :hi: I didn't attend either of those colleges.

[Chichiri]

11. Present.

[HEyHEY]

12. Why go to Harvard When Langara has more promiscuous girls?

[trof]

13. I actually went to a couple of seminars at Yale.

Fun and interesting.
They hold them every summer.
Open to the public, first come, first served.

[underpants]

14. Oooh look at the big brain on trof

:bounce:

[trof]

25. No grades.

Just information.
And some good food.
OK, and some drinks.
A few more than a few.
Boola, boola.
;-)

[bikebloke]

15. Used to live on a Harvard St.

I guess that counts.

[Nikia]

17. I decided against applying to the Ivies

If I had wanted to do that, I would have had to take the SAT II subject tests, which I feared that I'd do poorly on since my high school was not really college prep oriented. That would have also cost more money, finding another Saturday that didn't conflict with a track and cross country meet, and required travel (didn't offer the test in my town).
I really would have only had an outside chance of getting in since my one shot at the SATs was only just over the 90th percentile. My high school did not offer AP classes or even honors classes. On the plus side though, through Ohio options program, I had taken a college class each of the semsters my junior year and 2 classes each semester my senior year. They were at an accredited 4 year college and I received As in them and probably could have gotten a good recommendation from my political science professor from my junior year and psychology professor my fall semester senior year.
Overall though, I wanted to go to a smaller college anyway. I also wanted a college that was more undergraduate oriented and a non division I college since I wanted to run intercollegiately. I applied to 3 competitive liberal arts colleges and was accepted at all 3. I went to the one that offered me the best aid package and it turned out to be a good fit.

[no name no slogan]

18. Not me-- I went to DeVry

[wildhorses]

42. dunno, dude

[Midlodemocrat]

23. I did some graduate work at Yale, but no degree from there.

[KamaAina]

24. Well, I didn't go to Harvard

KamaAina Y'85 cum laude, which is a hell of a lot more than King Dumbass** '68 can say!

Otto (sunning himself on the hood of the school bus) "Yep, almost got tenure too"

-The Simpsons

[elshiva]

Graduated from Lamar University in Beaumont. (Woohoo!) And I'm going to grad school at Sam Houston in Huntsville, TX, though I'm considering doing something else next semester...

[LSK]

And took some nice pictures and walked the grounds for an hour or 2 in the summer of 2001.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

[enigami]

41. Moran !!!!

[skygazer]

43. You're not the only one

I'm a high school dropout, for that matter, which I refuse to be ashamed of. I prefer to think of it as "self-educated." ;)

[UrbScotty]

YEARGH!

[Beaverhausen]

46. I got a BA from University of Delaware. Go Blue Hens!

:crazy:

[politicat]

48. Got accepted at Harvard, but there was no way I could afford it.

They wanted a $400 deposit, and neither I nor my folks could afford that. It might as well have been $4 billion.

I kept the letter, though, for a really long time.

[libnnc]

49. not even close...

UNC-Greensboro BA-History

although a former professor and close friend of mine got her BA at Harvard...:shrug:

[LaraMN]

50. I went to St. Cloud State in MN. Until I got knocked up.

I'm hoping to go back to school in the spring. I have two years left for my BA, and would like to get a Master's, eventually.

[MrSlayer]

51. I didn't go to college at all.

I hated school and knew college would just be a long party and serious waste of my parents' money. So what did I do? I joined the Electrician's Union and went to electrical school. Ironic, no? I did get 1350 on my SATs though.

[Seabiscuit]

52. Turned them both down - went to Bezerkeley instead.

Just loved giving the finger to the East Coast Blue-Bloods.

[Semi_subversive]

53. Sacramento State University

So glad they're calling it that again.

[Wapsie B]

54. No Ivy leaguer here. But a proud alum of Western Illinois University
