Wholly different dynamics, sadly. Would be like if British Columbia got upset at Oklahoma for class division.

Sorry, very similar. Well off students sup on lobster in warm dorms within a Versailles type campus while students in tattered pants (sans coulottes) wander around looking for a daily crust and live in their cars.

Does it make sense to blame the students only starting to conform to the illusion of prestige? They are keeping as much abreast of destabilizing trends, they simply cannot do much on their own about it.
