Merry Summer Vacation, Ivy Leaguers

Merry Summer Vacation, Ivy LeaguersWe’re on hiatus. Do as you please on the comment board and look for summer editors starting June 16. If you’d like to be a summer editor – or maybe you are lonely without your daily IvyGate and would like to share A/S/L + sexi pic? – drop us a line before May 16.

Also, how rad is this baby portrait? Will some Whartonite please use it for a senior yearbook portrait? Please?

PS: Saw this one coming a mile away.

  3. But.... Says:

    How am I supposed to justify procrastinating when I’m working on papers if IvyGate isn’t publishing?

  4. @procrastinator Says:

    put off justifying it until ivygate resumes

    Off to Goldman Sachs we go!

    Serious question for the editors here: could I be an anonymous/pseudonymous summer editor? I really don’t want my name to ever be Google-able in reference to IvyGate, but I’d love to blog for you guys.

  7. Nick Says:

    Nope, sorry.

    White people don’t seem to like the Ivy League after all. What a surprise.

    As a side note, I’m kind of bored by that blog. The comments on it are the lowest common denominator. The comments on this entry in particular especially– self-declared MRS-seeking Southern women taking exception to the tone of the blog, and just about everyone else justifying that their college really is the Harvard [of geographic region]. Bah.

    Goldman Sachs? I mean, yeah banks are cute and all, but the buy side is where it’s at. Don’t get me wrong, if you like earning roughly $14/hour (on average) once you’re salaried, then that’s cool. I, on the other hand, will be working in Miami on the finance side of an international company, making $30+/hour, and home by 5:30pm every day. But it’s your life, so have fun at 3AM playing with Excel at 85 Broad.

    He was kidding you fucking ass. Get a sense of humor.

    Actually, he probably wasn’t kidding. Hey IvyGate, you were just mentioned on NPR (during a segment on ANTM) for you interview with Victoria Marshman. Heh.

    Really enjoyed it, I wanted to click out and
    you kept pulling me back in! Many thanks
    and keep up the great work!

    “click out” ??

    “Patrik” is from harvard (he obviously doesn’t have the social skills necessary to converse on a blog).

    Buy side, schmuy side…If you weren’t so stupid you’d realize that once you’re salaried, the salary no longer matters. What matters is your bonus! So while you’re making $30+/hour and joking with your colleagues about how the boys over at Goldman Sachs are making less dollars per hour than you (and working later), Christmas time will come around…And guess what? The ballers at Goldman are going to get fat paychecks that make your little salaried wage look like peanuts…Go get a clue.

    yah bro im gonna be makin so much money ballin around the world workin for banks and international companies n shit!

    Nice try, number-cruncher. Even with their cute little “bonus” factored in, they still work for dirt cheap once you factor in the hours. Clearly you’ve never worked for a bank before, or this wouldn’t come as such a surprise to you. You work at a bank for the resume padding/experience, not because you expect to be compensated well on a per-hour basis, even with your bonus (good luck even getting one this year!).

  19. @10:06 Says:

    It’s true. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. And FYI I don’t know what you think the bonus is for a first year IB analyst but it is not as much as you think, i.e. it is still less than your salary even at a BB firm.
