Ivy league school grads are starting to get looked down upon. Entitled kids that are halfway book smart and no way common sense smart.

There is absolutely truth to this. In my experience, Ivy Leaguers have become so accustomed to being able to skate by feeding profs the buzz words the prof is looking for, that they don't develop any real analytical ability.

In my law classes, over a decade ago, the Ivy grads would always have a canned answer ready to go when called on, well rehearsed, full of thr buzz words of the day, and enough elegant sounding bulllshit to tie them all together.

When the prof would call BS on the answer, noting it didn't actually address the questions posed, the Ivy kids went full deer-in-headlights. They had no idea what to do when their canned answers got rejected.

Sad for a group of universities that have prided themselves for centuries on developing innovators.
