[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about we start by changing attitudes on the demand side? Parents and students need to stop obsessing about school ratings and prestige. No new admission system is going to prevent most applicants to the highly selective schools from getting rejected. It’s just numbers. Stop it with the bad logic on athletes and college sports. Only a few schools actually make money on their sports programs. The Ivy League is the name of a sports conference for goodness sake. The schools want those student-athletes, most of whom are just as smart as your kid. [/quote] Then why do the schools have to lower the admissions standards for athletes to gain entrance? Why do athletes often take remedial classes? [/quote]
