Why do so many ivy leaguers post here?

Seems like an unusually large number of /fa/ggots go to prestigious schools, especially ivies. I get the impression that the proportion is even higher than on /sci/. Of course it might be confirmation bias, but I think it would be independent of the board I'm on.

So why/how do so many of you attend such good schools?

If you go/went to an ivy or similarly ranked school, do you post here regularly? What do you study? How's your life going, and what was your childhood like? why do you browse /fa/?

How do I become like you?

iirc pic related goes to dartmouth

My best guess is that many ivy /fa/gs had parents who were financially secure and had decent leisure time. Since they had spending money and time to spend it, the parents dressed well, and the kids picked up the habit.
This also meant that they had the time and resources to send their kids to good high schools and to push them into certain activities and classes, all of which makes for a good college application. At the undergrad level, ivies take plenty of specialized geniuses, but they also want undergrads who are more well-rounded and pretty good at a variety of things, and a teenaged /fa/ fits in well there.

You don't see institutions like Johns Hopkins or MIT mentioned here though, which also makes sense, as they care more about research and seek more undergrads who are exceptionally specialized. /sci/ fits better than /fa/ here.

But then why the fuck would you browse a Japanese cartoon forum to discuss fashion? We have a dozen threads about "is __ effay" and bully each other in the waywts which are usually very bad. Why does this appeal to the effay ivy leaguer?

Also, how do you dress?

Although it is no ivy-league, I attend Caltech. I was introduced to 4chan many years ago by a degenerate friend. Since then, I've began exploring many different boards and eventually settled on fit, fa, and sci.

Most of my family is in shape and played sports in the past. They also dress well and most have at least a BA/BS. I feel that I just fell into that theme which has led me to frequent this board. I feel that maybe this is the case for quite a few of us.

>A lot of posters claim they go to expensive schools

>Most WAYWT posts do not have anything to do with any kind of wealth or ivy-like settings

Makes sense.

/fa/ has become the perfect place for shitposts. fashion discussion for me takes a back seat to banter and dicking around here. of course i still enjoy fashion and the dedicated discussion thereof, i just like screwing around here because i feel most of you are like minded to myself (appreciation of aesthetic value, consumer fetishism, "cool vibes", etc...)

I'm don't attend an ivy league, but i can only guess thats why people come here when some of the threads are so terrible and the waywt are usually trash.
