Guess the OP doesn't know the Ivy League schools.
AKA The Ancient Eight: Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn, Princeton, Yale.

There are only 3 people who mention Penn being an Ivy League School in this thread. OP is probably telling his/her friends in Ken-ville how awesome it is they have a president who didn't go to an Ivy League School.

Ladies and Gentleman, the reason why Donald Trump was elected President. They don't know who the real insiders are. Never even heard of Wharton before and think Philadelphia is a big ghetto. It's pretty sad.

This is probably the biggest thread fail I've ever seen on this website. Perfectly epitomizes the low information voters that elected Trump.

I'm a native Pennsylvanian but have come across a bunch of people on travels throughout the US that somehow confuse the University of Pennsylvania with the Pennsylvania State University.
This. I'm a Penn alum and can't count the times I've been asked about Penn State football and Joe Paterno.

That happens because you're from PA, or were at least living there for college.

I'm from MA and live and work in Boston and uninformed people still ask. I'm not making excuses for them. I'm always surprised that they have no idea.
