[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read gender and race-based affirmative action and athletic recruiting has tanked admissions standards. Kids repeatedly fail courses and then get to retake abbreviated joke courses in the summer to pass. The dummies know this policy, thus abuse it. Lot of the kids aren't patriotic at all. [b]Many kids are gunners just there to check a box and get free undergrad, to position them for prestige grad school/career.[/b][/quote] I think it is very smart if your other option is to take tons of debt. These kids are get paid approximately $900 per month, start IRA at the age of 17-18 and max it out every year. So, when they graduate at the age of 21, they already ahead financially from any kid who took loans to pay for undergrad. Free grad school is also a smart option. West Point has a several scholarships available for kids to attend MIT or Harvard for grad school. [/quote]
