I went to an Ivy League school and based on my experience, I found the author's comments to be exaggerated. How in the world could he not find anything to speak to the plumber about? Furthermore, why should he blame it on class differences when it was probably more of a case of social inadequacy? Although there are many ivy leaguers who major in econ or finance in order to work at an i-banking or big consulting firm in nyc, there are others who have different goals. My friends consisted of the latter and we created our own space within our school while still feeling very much a part of campus life.
