I guess I was one of those middle class scholarship kids. There were lots of them around and they were my friends. The private school kids honestly tended to keep to themselves. It's a part of my Stanford experience I found most jarring.
I know several "middle class" kids who went to Stanford. All of their parents were professors (or at least PhDs). The rest had parents who were doctors.
So, maybe things are different now.
