Who do you think I am? Nobody told me that somebody else has a monopoly on the word "snarky", so I guess we'd all better stop using it, except for "her", the one with the monopoly. Beyond silly. Yes, Die Thread, Die! |

| Yes, the word snarky is indeed overused on the DCUM board...just like Big 3. I suspect you are a Big 3? |

| Yes, we know who you are ... Ms Big 3. Don't worry like taxes, death will surely come. Don't dispair. |

I don't feel like reading through the first 12 pages of this thread. Can anyone give me the crib notes?

| Someone started a more recent post on Ivy League aspirations acting as though it's bad to want an Ivy for your kid -- to each his/her own. |

| I would be willing to bet DC has a very high number of parents who would like an Ivy for their children |

You can be recruited to row at college even if you have no prior rowing experience. It helps if you are a talented athlete, preferably tall with long levers. You can definitely be recruited if you are a good athlete, tall, and have a good erg score - say, 7:20 or better for 2,000 meters. You do not need to be on a team to develop a good erg score - you just need access to an erg and a good training program. For more information about being recruited to row in college you could check out http://athletesbooks.com/rowing/row-in-college/ |
