Ivy Trash

The set of Ivy league graduates who lack the intellectual capacity for an education but where able to attend due to family connections. In adult life, usually gather in self-referencing clusters to validate their elitist sense of entitlement and intellectually lazy lifestyles.

Ivy League

Original origin comes from the plant 'Ivy', in which these plants usually tend to creep upon the walls of buildings. As ivy plants grow extensively for years, these buildings may still remain, giving these buildings a good reputation of their existence.
Universities such as Harvard and Yale are Ivy League because they have been in existence for a long period of time because the ivy plants that grow on the walls of their buildings signify of how long the buildings were there.

Ivy League

Over a century ago, an interscholastic athletic league was formed by Harvard, Yale, Columbia and Princeton. It was officially known as the "Four League." The Roman numeral "IV" was often used instead of the word four and the term "IV League" came into use. When spoken, the IV was spelled out and sounded like "Ivy League." Brown, Dartmouth, Cornell and Pennsylvania were the major opponents of the IV league, and in the early 1900's were members of the league.

ivy ceiling

The point in a large corporation at which you cannot proceed up the ladder for lack of an ivy league degree. Talent will not take you past this point, only your pedigree and connections. It's one of the few ceilings that you can see; it looks like the incompetent, but connected assholes in the c-suites.
I hit the ivy ceiling. He was a pudgy fat ass, and it felt good.
