To the elite class of this country, Louisiana State University is nothing compared to Harvard/Yale/Stanford Law schools. Graduates of the latter schools, according to many, descend from high heavens, whereas people from state schools are those who can't make it to HYS.

That is the epitome of an elitist comment. Do you even know anything about LSU?
There are two aspects to my comment: (a) whether one agrees with my comment or not (b) whether one understands what's going on in the world. My comment is about (b): the way students and their parents crave for HYP/S undergrad admissions; HYS law schools; Harvard/Stanford b schools; tells us that even those who sneer at elites want their kids to be part of the same elite or at least become servants of that elite.

By the way, I didn't go to any elite college anywhere in the world. However, I want to understand people.

Then you’re agreeing that it’s an elitist point of view.
