If You Want to Talk About Struggle…UPENN
So despite how it comes off, and I hate admitting it- I am a graduate of the best IVY league there is. Ben Franklin agrees with me, so I will take no arguments. HOWEVER, the reason Penn was so great, is it did allow me to make wise-ass comments like that. In fact, if I could back it up, they let me say anything (that part of the learning process took a lot of research, but why I am incredibly good at fact checking). So I was very disturbed to see this article today: (Click the picture)
But here is the thing: There is a reason sometimes I lie, and know a lot about Penn State: it makes you more relatable, Everyone hates an Ivy League kid, except an Ivy League kid. I loved every member of my floormates that played football, But, yeah Penn State has a better team. But, let’s talk about Penn State- besides the Sandusky scandal- I want you all to take a minute to read and digest this:
So anyway, my Dad actually taught at Penn, I was recruited for Squash (I think that might have been how I got in). But when my brother wasn’t accepted I warned the Dean of Admissions: I am with my Father: I won’t give you a dime… it’s all going to my boarding school!- which is now notorious for incredible scandal, just pick a decade! (Editor’s note: Lizzie is not so thorough on the threats) - I loved Penn and there are Professors like Dr. Diebold I would run in front of a bus for (we will get into how I was never in his class- but honestly the best man on that campus and came to my graduation dinner) - but yes, sometimes UPenn embarrasses me.
