I am not a fan of punching down. It’s fine to be proud of your Alma Mater but you don’t have to bring others down.
Notre Dame is a special school for a lot of reasons and I’m on this board for that reason. Subway alums are a major part of the mission of the school, not just the football team. I imagine many non-legacy admits had both grads and non-grads help them get in because they feel the same way.
ND is an exceptional institution, but there are certainly other more prestigious schools academically. Not many, but some. When I see posts like this I cannot help but point this out. I wouldn’t say something about my school unless it’s to attack a bully. Maybe I’m being hypocritical but I think it’s rich to attack someone’s spirituality because they didn’t go to a specific school.
