This is a school full of legacy admits and rich kids anyway. Meritocracy is a blatant lie, no matter how hard I work I still have to "pay the price" for being born poor and nonwhite in this miserable excuse for a country. All these prestigious schools are the same -- they admit a handful of working class folks to serve as "inspirational stories" who are given the privilege of pursuing a doctoral degree, and the rest of us rejects have to beg for jobs that refuse to pay us what we're worth; meanwhile Jeff who's never paid for a bill in his life gets hired because his dad knows a guy at the country club. I hope all rich people lose their wealth and learn to live on the street like the rest of us "undesirables".
