My sister’s friend got into ND and Davidson. He was a swimmer but not good enough to swim consistently at ND so he chose Davidson. He’s been tremendously successful in his career and doesn’t give ND a second thought. He’s one of countless examples of people I know personally who didn’t attend ND and ended up being super successful. Why ND alumni act like you can’t get a great education and alumni network elsewhere is beyond me. It makes us sound provincial and condescending.
