No offense intended, but I find this comment inappropriate. Are you implying that because Dean went to a state college and worked in construction that he was not suitable for Rory? I'm no fan of Dean, and he never had Rory's intellectual curiosity, but I'm not sure that he should be considered "not a proper mate." Are only Ivy leaguers to marry other Ivy leaguers? Are only the wealthy to marry the wealthy? That is a little class-est, IMO.
