When in the Course of academic events,
it becomes necessary for one educational institution to dissolve the political
bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of
the College Board, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Higher
Education entitle them a decent respect to opinions and quality of education of
Non Ivy Leaguers requires that they should declare the causes which impel to
the separation.
We hold these truths to be
self-evident, that all college students choose to attend the institution that
best fits their preferences, and that they do not deserve to be disrespected
from other individuals from other institutions based on that choice. The history of the present Ivy League
Students is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in
direct object the establishment of an absolute superiority and hierarchy over
fellow institutions. To prove this, let
Facts be submitted to a candid world.
They have undermined the value of our
education system.
They have underestimated our
intelligence.
They have separated themselves as the
power elite.
They have undermined the prestige of
our diplomas.
They have ridiculed our classes, our
work load, and our work ethic.
They denounce the status of our
professors.
They feel entitled to the best job
positions, therefore we are undercut in our job search.
We will complete the around the same
amount of credits. We have come from the
same cities, neighborhoods, and high schools as some of those Ivy League
students. We will suffer, if not more, the same financial obligations. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the
necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest
of mankind.
We therefore as the representatives of
the Non-Ivy Leaguers in general congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme
Judge of College Education for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the
name, and by the authority of the good students of Non-Ivy League education,
solemnly publish and declare, this group of Non-Ivy Leaguers independent.
