My wife's high school currently costs the same as Zuck's.[1] Her family didn't pay a dime; she was a scholarship kid. Her family could nowhere near afford to send her and her sister there if they hadn't both been scholarship kids. Don't paint everyone who goes through those schools as being papered and connected.

- Neeek 10y agoIsn't that the point though? By definition, that leaves the vast majority of the school to be papered and connected (or at least able to pay). Scholarships are exactly the minority in this case. (I understand we're trying to dispel stereotypes and prejudice here, not necessarily debunk the original point.)
