It could just be me! But they seem to be very defensive about whether or not they are a target school to a point where a banker once told me to not use those words because folks might get offended. It feels like a stupid thing to care about a year into the job. This isn't even a troll post - actually happened.

I mean I think target/non-target school distinctions are arbitrary anyways and Kelley IS a target for a number of banks- maybe you've met some hardos and maybe you've been unconsciously elitist, I don't think you can make that generalization
I agree Kelly is a target, nothing against the school, just think that genuine questions about it are not something people should take offense to
You asked a couple of bankers if their college is a target? Follow the fucking guide mclovin
who fucking cares
