here I am, beseeched to lose every job I search for to the man from Harvard, MIT, or Yale - not because I'm any less than him, but because the label stuck to me, my platinum-plated stamp, is not "as good" as his.
Well if that were true, no one from any other college would ever get a job then. My dad went here, and he got a really good job. I mean, I know you don't want to be a lawyer, but still, he didn't get beaten out by a Harvard Law graduate, you know? It'll be tough for all of us just starting out, but we'll make it. And yeah, a few ignorant people might turn you down at first, but I think it's starting to mean less . . . I mean, the SAT has started counting for less with colleges. And I learned in college government last year that Harvard and Yale are most likely better in name only; I'm sure they have good teachers, but I don't think their education is any better than ours, and I think a lot of people know that. It's enough for most people that we did go to college, any reputable college. Don't worry, things will work
