I don't come from an Ivy League school or anywhere else.

Academia is a rarified culture, especially an Ivy League academic background.

People come out of the mid-west and go to the Ivy League. I kind of reversed the direction.

I never went to camp as a kid. I couldn't get into an Ivy League school. I wouldn't join a biker club.

The Ivy League is a step up for the most part.

I am not someone who went to a business school or even an Ivy League school, so I'm thrilled to be here.
