Donald Trump has a habit of boasting about his prestigious pedigree as a graduate of Wharton School of Finance.
It turns out the feelings arent mutual.
Current and former students of the elite University of Pennsylvania business school have penned an open letter that sends a loud message to the presumptive GOP nominee: You do not represent us.
The scathing letter, published Friday on Medium, has been signed by over 600 people who want to distance themselves from the billionaire buffoon, who frequently flaunts about his Wharton roots to boost his credentials.
We, proud students, alumni, and faculty of Wharton, are outraged that an affiliation with our school is being used to legitimize prejudice and intolerance, the letter reads.

The NY Daily Snooze has degenerated, in the last couple of years, into a libtard rag, barely better than a crudely printed broadsheet. I can barely stand to read it (online) any more. They write about Hillary as though she is a goddess and they write about Trump as though he was a demon. They employ such notables as Anthony Weiner and the disgusting racist Shaun King to use their pages as a public platform to spew their libtard message. They excoriate teachers and police. Their libtard bias drips from every page. They don’t even pretend to be a fair and unbiased news source any more. So, I would not put much weight into anything printed on their slime dripping pages.
I wouldn’t trust a recent Wharton graduate to run a lemonade stand for profit.
When those 600+ idiots have accomplished what Trump has accomplished, then they can talk to him.
He has just as much right to determine who does and doesn’t represent the school as they do (more than some of them because he finished, they’re still working on it). If they don’t want to be associated with him and wish to publicly announce that, fine. But if they’re trying to claim he’s illegitimately trading on his background at the school, they’re wrong.
This is why Wharton and Penn in particular, suck.
Trump is no WFB but even left-wing Yalies were proud of WFB.
Michelle Obama is your typical Princetonian... Her senior essay (barely legible) was about the trials and tribulations of being Black at Princeton... Basically, her essay was about herself. It’s a hilarious read.
Oh well. Going to a safety school is one thing, getting in because of affirmative action must really be a bummer.
Poor little Wharton kids, waiting out the Obama economy...
I think the DNews was recently sold for a dollar. Not a copy of the paper but the whole “business.”
Decode of letter.
You paid a lot of money to get educated in “ stupid”
Wow. They overpaid!
Back when Donald Trump attended Wharton, it did not teach “diversity”. Neither did Harvard, M.I.T., Stanford, or the University of Michigan.
Now they ALL teach “diversity”, and they silence and punish students, faculty and staff who oppose it. And they tout their “diversity”and “diversity studies” when they appeal to their alumni for funds. That includes older alumni who remember when their alma mater did not teach or practice “diversity”.
The U.S.A.—and all of western civilization—is DYING of “diversity”!!!! Wharton—and for that matter Harvard—was MUCH better off when it neither taught nor practiced “diversity”, but had freedom of speech, thought, conscience, and religion instead.
We all need to get back to the pre-”diversity” days. Make America great again!!!!
Response: “Thanks for the list of people I can save myself and my staff the trouble of interviewing for any position in my organization that might become vacant”.
5,000 students at Wharton and a minority are bigots and full of hate.
Why should we care?
5,000 students, but look carefully: the signatories CLAIM to be “students, faculty and alumni” of the school.
So even if they are telling the truth, it is a small number.
The Wharton graduate I know does not like Trump for prez. He’s a hedge fund manager That could have something to do with it
In any case, people voting dem for whatever selfish reason, liking Hillary for whatever crazy purpose or disliking Trump for unknown reasons. None of them are interested in what’s good fro the country - to borrow from savage - borders language culture. Any other sentiment is silly unacceptable in supporting a candidate. Anything else is promoting national suicide. But there’s no reasoning with such people. I ignore them. So what if they’re billionaires? They don’t necessarily know what’s best for the country
I guess Trump got in before UP got AA’d.
Versus
600-Snot nosed kids, who've accomplished Jack S#!T in life, still stuck in school at Wharton.
Donald Trumps Resume:
Graduated Wharton Became a Billionaire
Students resume:

The way I see it, Wharton, being a prestigious business school, gets to flaunt the success of Donald Trump as being one of their grads.
Donald Trump: "I graduated from Wharton Business School"
"Oh yeah...I became a BILLIONAIRE".
Student: "I went to classes at Wharton Business School."
"I haven't graduated yet...but some day."
"Oh yeah...I've never worked at a McDonalds, but we read about their managerial program in class."
What would make these 600 students who have not accomplished anything at all think that we should listen to them or care about their opinions?
Trump has every right to speak about his alma mater.
Who gives a Flying F what these ignorant students pen. All our colleges are turning out is pure ignorant fools that will never amount to anything because they are nothing. Mixed up kids that will never grow up.
Trump for President.
I’d be curious to know if Trump has donated any money to Wharton, his alma mater, that now BENEFITS these snot nosed punks.
As a skier I have to question the trendy use of snowflakes. Where would winter sports be without them? Isn’t there another word for coddled white Millennials?
