I wouldn’t say “important” either, but it definitely has cachet because of how hard it is to get into. And so many of these nutty extremists come out of Harvard and Yale that I’ve been asking for a while “WTF are they teaching at Yale Law (or insert Harvard school of your choice)?” They definitely weren’t brainwashed by the dreaded “woke” faculty.

Whenever I think of the Ivies, I think of Al Pacino's speech during "Scent of a Woman" when his character Frank Slade is ripping it up on behalf of Chris O'Donnell's character, Charlie Simms, at a hearing.

"Makers of men; creators of leaders; be careful what kind of leaders you're producin' here."
