Surely the Ivy League elite would explain away the results of this survey by testily explaining to society’s losers that they don’t produce workers, they produce leaders.
John Kerry is living, breathing proof that degrees from Harvard and Yale do not make you superior
Ronald Reagan was the last president we had who didn’t graduate from an Ivy League school like Harvard or Yale, and the highest levels of government for much of the nation’s history have been filled with Ivy League grads. But that doesn’t seem to influence the thinking of most American Adults.
In fact, only three percent (3%) say individuals who go to Ivy League schools are better workers than those who go to other schools. A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey finds that 79% do not think Ivy League students make better workers. Eighteen percent (18%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Adults across nearly every demographic agree that an Ivy League education does not necessarily make someone a better worker.
We don’t care what the Ivy League’s response to this survey might be, because this looks suspiciously like a consensus and as Al Gore has taught us, nothing’s surer than a consensus.
