Is anyone else extremely butthurt that they didn't go to an elite university?
I got great school grades but stupidly picked my nearest university. The courses were horrifically dumbed down compared to any worthwhile university. I use the math courses as a way to easily compare universities and it is shocking how dumbed down my university was.
How can the professors, who have taught or went to elite universities at some point, teach dumbed down bullshit with a clean conscience? I forgot who it was, but some sort of academic bureaucrat wouldn't even admit before some sort of political commission that Oxford and Oxford Brookes have different course standards. No doubt they don't want to disrupt the gravy train.
Most universities are gigantic concrete monuments to mediocrity. You could bulldoze the lower ranked half of them and lose absolutely nothing.
This is one of those issues that is simply never mentioned in the media. In the UK there is constant complaining about Oxbridge not admitting enough minorities or poor people. Nobody ever asks why the other universities don't just copy the curriculum. I don't care about old buildings or tutorials. I wish I had gone to an Imperial College style pressure cooker.

Oh give me a break. Any reasonably intelligent and conscientious person can get the grades for one of the top universities.
