I'm going to put this out there first before asking this question. I believe that our brainpower lasts longer than our physical appearance. Almost every nice looking person in this world will one day grow old and become unattractive but brainpower is there with them until the day they die or acquire Alzheimer. With that being said and since I am in college right now I will start up with the college environment. Does anyone here rank people based on what their major are in college - kind of like the caste system? The more difficult major require higher rank in high school - meaning people who excelled in every class in high school are allowed admission to that specific major.
I'm curious about this because whenever I walk around campus, I always see people wearing shirts that may have one of the following phrases on them "College of Liberal Art, College of Natural Science, College of Engineering, College of Business." Does this mean that they want to be ranked based on their major?

This really makes me laugh.
I know CEOs, CFOs, famous people......a lot of them had crappy education or are just not really that bright. They landed their wealth and success on chance. I hang out around them and am boggled that they can function at all sometimes.
This is a great book about that topic.

BTW- I was a mechanical engineering major in college.
On a serious note, racism is bad
Back to my original question please, we have gone off topic yet again. How do you guys rank people? I believe humans are really pre-destined to be what they will be in the future. Really, you can't escape the caste you are born into. If you think about it, people are born with a certain genes that will allow them to do certain things in life. Our genetics are like keys that enable us to open certain knowledge doors. Some are born with all the keys necessary to access all sorts of knowledge while others are born with limited amount of keys so they don't have the potential to unlock all the necessary doors to knowledge that may help them move up in society. Now, if people are proud of their birth-given genes, then most likely that is the reason for why they proudly wear shirts that have phrases like "College of Natural Science, Business, etc..." I think it is there to remind them of their places in society and I believe that remembering our places in society is the most important things. I fully respect people who are above me and anything they say is right and everything I say is wrong.
