Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letteron Answer Sheet 2.In the Real World, Nobody Cares that You Went to an Ivy League SchoolA As a high schoo
30、l junior, everything in my life revolved around getting intothe right college. I diligently attended my SAT, ACT, and Advanced Placement testpreparation courses. I juggled ( 尽 力 付 ） cross-country and track schedules,newspaper staff, and my churchs youth group and drama team. I didnt drink, party, or
31、even do much dating. The right college, I thought, was one with prestige, one with aname. It didnt have to be the Ivy League, but it needed to be a top school.B Looking back now, nine years later, I cant remember exactly what it wasabout these universities that made them seem so much better. Was it
32、a curriculum thatappeared more rigorous, perhaps? Or an alumni network that I hoped would opendoors down the line? Maybe. I do think there are advantages to schools with morerecognition,notes Marybeth Gasman, a professor of higher education at theUniversity of Pennsylvania. I dont necessarily think
33、thats a reason to go to one. C In reflection, my firm belief in the power of the brand was naive, not tomention a bit snobby. I quickly passed over state schools and southern schools,believing their curriculums to be automatically inferior to northeastern or westerncounterparts. Instead, I dreamed o
34、f living in New York City and my parents obligedme with a visit to New York Universitys (NYU) campus. During the tour, tuition feeswere discussed. (NYU is consistently ranked one of the country, s most expensiveschools, with room and board costs totaling upwards of $64,000 a year. ) Up until then,I
35、hadnt truly realized just how expensive an education can be. Over the next fewmonths, I realized not only could I not afford my dream school, I couldnt even affordthe ones where Id been accepted. City University of New York (CUNY)， RutgersUniversity, and Indiana University were out of reach as were
36、Mississippi State and theUniversity of Alabama, where I would have to pay out-of-state fees. Furthercomplicating my college search was a flourishing track careerI wanted to keeprunning but my times werent quite fast enough to secure a scholarship.D And so, at 11 pm on the night of Georgia State Univ
37、ersitys (GSU) midnightdeadline, I applied online. Rated No. 466 overall on Forbes Lists Top Colleges, No.183 in Research Universities, and No. 108 in the South, I cant say it was my topchoice. Still, the track coach had offered me a walk-on spot, and I actually found theurban Atlanta campus a decent
38、 consolation prize after New York City.E While it may have been practical, it wasnt prestigious. But heres the thing：I loved my lower-tier ( 低 次的)university. (I use the term low-tier cautiously,because GSU is a well-regarded research institution that attracts high qualityprofessors and faculty from
39、all over the country. ) We are taught to believe that onlyby going to the best schools and getting the best grades can we escape the rat race andbuild a better future. But what if lower-tier colleges and universities were the ticket toescaping the rat race? After all ， where else can you leave schoo
40、l with a decentdegreebut without a lifetime of debt?F My school didnt come pre-packaged like the more popular options, so wewere left to take care of ourselves, figuring out city life and trying to complete degreeprograms that no one was championing for us to succeed in. What Im saying is, Iloved my
41、 university because it taught us all to be resourceful and we could make whatwe wanted out of it.G I was lucky enough to have my tuition covered by a lottery-fundedscholarship called HOPE (Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally). When I startedcollege, the HOPE scholarship was funded by the state
42、of Georgia and offered tograduating high school seniors with a GPA of 3. 0 or higher. Living costs and books Ipaid for with money earned during high school, supplemented by a small college fundmy deceased grandfather left for me and a modest savings account my parents createdwhen I was born.H So wha
43、t about all that name recognition? Sure, many of my colleagues andcompetitors have more glamorous alma maters ( 母 校 ) than I do. As a journalist, Ihave competed against NYU, Columbia, and Northeastern graduates for jobs. And yet,not a single interviewer has ever asked me about my educational backgro
44、und. In fact,almost every interview Ive ever had was due to a connectionone that Ive gainedthrough pure determination, not a school brand.I According to The Boston Globe, students who earned their bachelors in 2012have an average monthly loan payment of $ 312, which is one-third more than thosewho g
45、raduated in 2004. Ultimately, thats the thing universities dont want to admit.Private universities are money-making institutions. If you can afford to buy prestige,thats your choice. For the rest of us, however, our hearty lower-tiered universities arejust fine, thank you.J Wealthy universities talk
46、 up the benefits their name will give graduates:namely, strong alumni networks, star faculty, and a resume boost. But you needntattend an Ivy League school to reap those rewards. Ludacris and the former CEO ofBank of America Ken Lewis are alumni of my college, as well as VICEs first femaleeditor-in-
47、chief, Ellis Jones. Successful people tend to be successful no matter wherethey go to school, and lower-tier schools can have alumni networks just as strong astheir big name counterparts. In fact, lower-tier school alumni networks are arguablystronger, because fellow alumni recognize that you didnt
48、necessarily have an easypath to follow. They might be more willing to offer career help, because your lessfamous school denotes that, like them, you are also full of energy and perseverance.K The Washington Post reported on a recent study by Princeton economists, inwhich college graduates who applie
49、d to the most selective schools in the 12th gradewere compared to those who applied to slightly less selective schools. They found thatstudents with more potential earned more as adults,and the reverse held true as well,no matter where they went to school.L Likewise, star faculty are not always foun
50、d where youd expect. Big nameschools are not necessarily the best places for professors； plus,many professors splitteaching time between multiple colleges and/or universities. This means, for instance,a CUNY student could reasonably expect to receive the same quality of instructionfrom a prestigious
