[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They're picking the wrong students. There are so many packaged students that going to an elite college no longer guarantees being surrounded by top students. It does make the state schools' ROI look more attractive and you know you will find a cohorta there due to sheer numbers.[/quote] Yeah, as a professor What I am not seeing often is genuine intellectual curiosity. They often don’t know what to say when I ask something “what excites you about this field? What have you always wondered about or wanted to know?” I kinda blame rubrics. Since grade school they have sort of been spoon fed minimum standards but haven’t really engaged with open ended questions. For their final papers it was obvious who had asked GPT what to write about because so many students wrote about the same three questions and it was a question that none of them had previously demonstrated any interest in.
