[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am not going to argue that Steve Jobs was not needed. We need a lot more people like him as well. But he couldn't have done what he did without the likes of Wozniak. And the likes of Wozniak are in danger of being shut of from the gifted programming and elite schools. And this is in technology that has a natural market, presumably some nerds can find employment without elite higher education. Lots of basic science has no immediate market value, why can we save a few magnet programs and elite colleges for these brilliant yet not so well rounded individuals? Thankfully there is always graduate school. I don't think extracurricular counts much there yet. [/quote] It doesn't seem to me like Steve Wozniak was a person who would want to go to after-school test prep and who would be happy at an extremely competitive, achievement-focused place like Stuyvesant High School.[/quote]
