" certain wealthy, brainy students are cultivated as future members of the "ruling elite"

Wondering whether Baker’s expose of Stanford includes himself.  After all, he comes from a successful family of reporters and seems pretty brainy, and is likely destined to be a member of the elite reporting circles at the New York Times, Atlantic, or (these days) as owner of a successful substack.

Student at Phillips Academy, then Stanford, son of two very successful media folks, Baker says he is no nepo baby...Meet Stanford student whose reporting led to resignation of president

He seems fairly confident... https://theobaker.info/about

The lady always doth protest too much. I do think he is well qualified to write a book about the ruling elite, but not for the reasons he puts forward... And quite honestly: there is almost nothing about Stanford that is categorically different from Harvard/Yale/Princeton/etc. in terms of grooming the select few for positions of power. Maybe it just seems novel to his parents and their benefactors because they are all multi-generational East Coast elites?
