The people you meet probably couldn't make it into that University. It's more cutthroat and pretigious than MIT or so I saw from some documentary.
Yeah on that note, well sort of on a side note: I have two professors that are Indian, both unbelievable smart. Both have their respective PHD's and one of them, his father had a double PHD.

I think this shows how truly slack (for lack of a better word) our society is. When I think of most asians students in universities, they are very driven 'smart' individuals, and same goes for east indians. I dont believe that any of these individuals from other races are any smarter (hence the 'smart') than us, so why is it that most people from our culture don't have that same drive these individuals seem to have?
