For one thing, f*ck the Ivies - most of those schools aren't any harder (and often are easier - ever heard of grade inflation?) and don't provide any higher quality of education than lots of other schools in the country. They're just harder to get in to. Big deal.
For another thing, what is the purpose of GLOs, anyway? Anyone you ask will respond differently. But the fact is, they are
not all academic honor societies. (BTW, if you are going to be an elitist about what schools are "good" in that respect, maybe you should check out what schools have Phi Beta Kappa chapters before making out your list.) A lot of people think that, while scholarship is important, things like sisterhood/brotherhood and serving the community are more so - and you can definitely be at any kind of school, or no school at all, and still have those things.
