[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an academic at a research organization (not a university) and I totally agree with the OP. But I'd go a step further: I also get emails all the time from undergrad students whose professors require them to do some kind of interview or mock policy exercise involving outside experts. I understand the desire to help students get real-world experience, but I don't have endless extra time to help teach someone else's class. [/quote] So it's either brown-nosing for college admissions (and the counselors paid $$ telling them to do this need to stop) or it's feckless HS teachers assigning students an "impossible task" and PARENTS need to tell them to stop. [/quote] mandatory service hours are already one step too far in HS. Mandatory "research" or hobnobbing with policy experts is right over the top. [/quote]
