[quote=Anonymous]One of the things LinkedIn does —quite well — is to facilitate networking. If you’ve had an experience that is a useful point of connection, it makes sense to include that — even if a complete stranger regards this as “gauche”. Question: Why is including your high school “gauche” but including your college essential? I’m really interested in learning how attending a competitive private HS is “99% the efforts of your parents” — but somehow, magically ? — college and beyond are Not. Lol: Read through the posts about college admissions on DCUM, and even the affirmative action threads, and help me understand how the same parents that facilitated HS admissions suddenly step back, so that despite legacy admissions, parents writing checks , and stuff like the college admissions cheating scandals that left several parents behind bars, attending college is suddenly about the grit and determination of students.
