In 2017, what is Brown University's rep on the Street?

It's not the same granola hipster trust fund kid rep, is it? It has a single digit acceptance rate now and GPA/SAT requirements are damn near HYPS. If you work with any recent Brown grads, is there a distinct Brown vibe/personality [anymore]?

"ForexOptions" It's an Ivy League school...what do you think?

I know all the Ivys are full of polished gunners banks want...but Brown seems like the weird one. But maybe it's not really the odd one anymore. That's all I'm curious about.

What do Brown grads really do though besides being in Harry Potter movies

it's one of those ivy league schools. i heard they have a horrible reputation on wall street. if you go to one of them, you might as well roll up to your local mcdonald's after graduation and hope you can make manager before you're 25 .
