I get the frustration. Cornell is like the person finishing last at the Olympics finals. That will create some insecurity and frustration without a doubt.

Yes, I certainly have a legacy of better genetics.
As we say in Cambridge “better to inherit a hotel than manage one”.

Well, others say "better to have a brain than to merely pass as having one," and you are in the latter rather than the former category in that maxim.

Let's not make up nonsense sayings. It diminishes the discourse.

Cornell is like 85% legacies. It’s how it’s grads are able to fool themselves into thinking people are impressed with the school. Create a closed-loop system.

Hmmmm, the failure to manage the distinction between its and it's properly makes me think Sandy Bernard is the same poster as Rebuttal Jones. If they are not the same, they both suffer from poor English and poor substantiation of their assertions or arguments.

Rebuttal Jones stands on his own two feet.
But thank you once again for reinforcing the FACT that Cornell grads and supporters are whiners.
PS - Rebuttal Jones will always have the last word.

Rebuttal, you may insist on the last word, but you've failed to provide good words, even after being repeatedly challenged. Here's a challenge presented to you earlier, and you've failed to satisfy it: "Have you offered any evidence of Cornell grads being especially whiny? Can you? And if you think you can, please don't tender something uttered in response to your whiny criticism." Your whole thesis in this thread is rather like running up to someone, kicking him in the shin, and then announcing that he expressed pain. Your failure to persuade is hardly evidence of a top education. And you are not very good stylistically or grammatically. You certainly express an arrogance although I wonder if that is to play into stereotypes about Harvard students or alums (e.g., Dr. Major Charles Emerson Winchester, III, in M*A*S*H recounting his days of strolling along the banks of the Charles River, women dripping off his shoulders). I think there is a decent chance you are a Cornell reject and a fake Harvard alum.
Please go away.
Another data point in how defensive and whiny Cornell grads are.

It’s a stone cold fact that Cornell is considered a bottom tier Ivy, if not the worst. Arguing against that is futile and only someone with a vested interest in pumping their own ego would attempt it. As many have done here. It’s been proven beyond all doubt.
Then even as Cornell supporters attempt to invalidate my easily demonstrable assertions that the school isn’t very good or prestigious and it’s alums are burdened with a crippling inferiority complex, they claim, absent any evidence, that I didn’t go to Harvard.
Notice I’m not defending Harvard. Don’t need to.

Rebuttal Jones, you've proven nothing, despite pleas, over and over, to get you to post more than snotty assertions. The evidence that you are a fake Harvard grad has not only been that response (or lack of response), but poor English.
You seem obsessed with insulting and having the last (unsubstantiated) word.
I wonder what your accomplishments are but I won't ask because I doubt your veracity. You lack, in the word of a famous motto, veritas. ;P
There are graduates of many schools many would find more impressive than many Harvard grads. For example, a nurse from Penn or Yale, an engineer or programmer from Cornell, to say nothing of grads from Stanford, MIT or elsewhere. I'm not saying Harvard doesn't yield many good alums (and I was in the Harvard Club in NYC as recently as last week), but you wear your purported diploma on your snotty sleeve. An impressive grad of any top institution might produce something tactful, witty, elegant... yet you've done none of those things. Not one. Crikey, at least learn the difference between assertion and argumentation. You're as badly impressive as Pee Wee Herman riposting "I know you are but what am I?" ad infinitum.

This is why Kenenisa Bekele would likely choose Cornell over Princeton. : = )
(Note: I'm not knocking Princeton.)

Rebuttal Jones (once again?) bungles the distinction between its and it's. Harvard guy? L.O.L.

Defend Harvard? He can't defend Harvard very well with his English abilities. And I thought the punch line to the (badly stereotyping) joke about the student with a cart brimming with groceries in the Cambridge, MA, supermarket express checkout lane (reserved for shoppers with ten items or less) was "Are you an MIT student who can't read or a Harvard student who can't count?"

Is your next argument that I’m Hitler? Or will you stick with grammar?
That accomplished Cornell grads exists isn’t an argument. Nobody said the school isn’t good.
The thesis is it’s the bottom tier of the Ivies and it’s grads are whiners. So far Cornell’s defenders have cited misuse of apostrophes and the existence of a school of hotel management that it’s not the worst school. And have done so in long whining rants that confirm their inferiority complex.
This is why good defense attorneys don’t put their clients on the stand. The more they talk more guilty they appear.
Go ask people in your office which Ivy is the worst. Cornell will come up a lot. HYP won’t come up once.
A good education should include humility. You didn't get one.
