Perhaps it's just that I'm at home and have a lot more time to waste, but I find myself spending up to 3-4x more time stalking people's LinkedIns — all to discern one piece of information: their undergrad school. Anything below WashU is an embarrassment in my book (except for maybe GTech or STEM majors at Berkeley). How can I overcome my contempt for people who went/go to shitty schools?

I'd recommend you see a proctologist ASAP, but if you can't, then here's the steps you can take.
Gently lube the outside of your anus with vaseline, then slowly work it in around the edges. Be generous and thorough. Wearing gloves will help.
Then, gently try to remove the massive stick that's up your ass. What the fuck is wrong with you?
This ^
Hahaha it’s crazy to think there’s actually people like this out there. You guys are in for a real reality check when life hits your perfect world.
What if your gf/wife is from a non-target?
Where did you go to undergrad?
How many different women (who the majority of men would consider a 9 or a 10) have you had intercourse with in the last 12 months?
How much all-in pre-tax compensation do you earn per year?
What is your net worth?
Answer these questions so I can determine if you're actually as sucessful as you claim to be.

Hahah what's "top 6"? Non-HYP Ivy? I could take your logic a step further - shouldn't kids from a Harvard or Stanford look down on you for not attending a HYPSM?
Self hatred is a serious mental health issue. Go see a psychologist.
After 1-2 jobs nobody cares where you went to undergrad.
I'd rather hire somebody who went to Bumblefuck Community College then got a couple good professional designations and has a couple of years of experience than a brand new HBS grad.
Personally, I went to a small non-target liberal arts college. Why? It was a nice school and they offered me an awesome package of scholarships.
I'm not alone in this:
And Bobby Axelrod went to Hofstra
.
Dude, hide behind your anonymity. I just pulled all of the biggest names from the last places I've worked. Less than 1/5 went to a target. Just getting your CFA Charter is a more common associating factor, although absolute charisma seems very useful as well, particularly in sales.
Your old boys network may help in a law practice in the deep south, but I work in a pretty decent meritocracy.
FYI, Jamie Dimon went to Tufts.
David Solomon went to Hamilton.
CEO of Evercore, Ralph Schlosstein went to Denison.
One of the founders of Carlyle went to Syracuse.
jesus bro, you suck cock
lol @ people taking this thread seriously
You are probably right. This guy is probably just trying to get people triggered.
The ones who make it in this industry (and in life in general) have grit, drive and internal motivation. You'll find these types, esp 1st gen college kids w/ scholarships at plenty of undergrad schools below WashU. They are the ones that will make it with no help from anyone. Sure, it may take them longer, but they also bounce back faster because they know how far rock bottom is & can't hide away at their parent's Hampton's summer house after being fired in a recession.
Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?
I guess you are just one of those ignorant assholes
del
Jamie Dimon went to Tufts for undergrad.
Pretty sure Tufts isn't even in the top 20.
In the small chance this isn't just a bored troll post: You grow up.
I know this is a troll thread, but on a more serious note: The only people I know that still jack off to their undergrad- or grad school, are those that seemingly wasted their youth on achieving academic greatness, or simply did not venture in anything else. Seems like some coping mechanism.
It reminds me of some of my classmates from when I studied electrical engineering - some of them would be downright hostile towards "lesser" majors, because they saw lighter workload as less prestigious, or whatever.
As a non-target my self, you always know some ppl think like this, but sad to see it put so blatantly.
Do you actually intrinsically value someone less if they didn't go to a top school? You need help...
