Advantages: None, snobbery is old news

Disadvantages: Prejudice

I went to a New university and found its academic excellence very high. Indeed when inspected by Ofsted it came out above many Old universities. The arguement that Old is better no longer holds true. I also did not go via the traditional route of A levels. For someone to say that my degree is worthless shows what kind of snobbery there is in todays society. We should applaud those who are committed to taking the time to futher their studies. I have had five friends who have gone to study at Old universities, namely Oxford and Cambridge, and all decided to leave because:
1. There was some awful snobbery from the so called upper class students
2. The academic excellence was better elsewhere
3. Old was not as good as new.

Lets leave the class devide and get away from old and new. Lets results and peoples opinions rule.
