I am not, but I'm from Cambridge, Massholia and I know some of the organizers, graduates and money folks that support the program. At the time of YC making headway ('06?) I gave an incubator some thought at the time I thought that I was too old for it. In retrospect, I'd still give it a go today and I'm over the hill. High-energy, focused programs are great, but again, are no substitute for traditional education.

fair enough

i think all programs/institutions etc are what you make of them

there are students who go to Ivy Leagues and soak it up and there are others who f* it up

likewise, there are startups who learn a ton and excel in an accelerator and there are others who flounder
