Ivy League Admission Reactions
Ivy League Admission Reactions April 22 Business Insider has a piece on Ivy League admission reactions shared in the Twitterverse. We came across an article up on Business Insider entitled High school seniors reactions to Ivy League admissions ranged from joy to gallows humor and we figured wed share our two cents on the piece. The article focuses on Twitter reactions of students who both did and did not gain admission to Ivy League colleges a couple of weeks ago. Yes, students who were admitted to Ivy League colleges as well as students who were denied admission felt the need to share this news with the Twitterverse. Oy vey is right. Do Ivy League admission reactions really need to be shared with the world on Twitter? Think about the folks who didnt get in. Were glad to see no student of ours featured bragging about the schools they got into in this piece. Frankly, they know better. Marchelle Lundquist (hey, she put her name out there into the universe and Business Insider wrote about her so we sure can too!) Tweeted, I GOT INTO COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY! IM CRYING #Columbia2019. Oh, and her Tweet also included four blue hearts. And, yes, the blue is the Columbia blue. A little on the nose? Maybe a touch. Ana Montalvo shared her congratulatory email from Harvard Collegeà on Twitter. Remember the days when families would just share in this moment togetherwithout the rest of the world? We do! Our favorite Twitter comment featured in the Business Insider piece comes from Troy Rothschild. Troy Tweeted, So proud to say Ive been admitted to Harvard class of 2019! lol jk we going to Bucknell. Yeah, we is. Love it, Troy. We like your sense of humor. And Josh Hughes had a good zinger too. The young man from Iowa Tweeted, Chocolate milk will never reject you #protips #IvyDay. No, chocolate milk will never reject you. We happen to love chocolate milk, Josh! Do you prefer to add the splash of chocolate yourself or buy chocolate milk with the chocolate already mixed in? And Trinh Truong, you Tweeted, Ive got a serious decision to make. #Yale2019 #Dartmouth19s #Brown2019 #Columbia2019 #Princeton2019. Must we react? Nora Brown, who Tweeted, harvard yale princeton class of 2019!!! which to pick not much better. Come on, people! Aim to be a little bit more like Troy Rothschild and Josh Hughes. They know whats up.
