Be Proud of Your Accomplishments, Not Your Affiliations, Harvard Business Review

Ask someone to talk about their accomplishments or career and many people follow the trend of stating their university degrees, company experience, and professional affiliations. The author of this article argues that people should focus on their own contributions rather than affiliations when they talk about themselves. It allows someone to show their own skills rather than add themselves to the category of "just another banker, or ivy league student, or consultant."

You can find the article here on the Harvard Business Review website
