Fake Ivy Worksheets

Students across the country are side-eyeing their teachers after discovering that decades-old worksheets are being passed off as elite �enrichment material.� Marketed internally as �Fake Ivy,� these photocopied exercises promise academic rigor but mostly recycle problems from 1997 math drills and grammar sheets with faded clip art. One outraged student described them as �the Blockbuster Video of education.� Teachers argue they still serve a purpose, but parents paying thousands in tuition feel duped. Education experts say this phenomenon reflects a deeper struggle: institutions clinging to prestige branding while ignoring actual innovation in learning. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
