Not being a graduate of an elite university, I am extremely sympathetic to this argument

I am not familiar with the author or the publication, so I cannot comment on the biases that might be expected, but I thought this article "The Disadvantages of an Elite Education" by a William Deresiewicz was worth reading.

The disadvantages are apparently:

1. "It makes you incapable of talking to people who aren't like you."
2. "An elite education inculcates a false sense of self-worth."
3. "It is profoundly anti-intellectual."

I'm not saying he's right; I am saying its interesting.
