[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to an elite private school in NJ. And one of things I struggled with as a student was knowing how many brilliant and amazing classmates I had, and how few career opportunities were presented to us outside of medicine, law, and especially high finance. Our society needs of course great doctors, lawyers, and economists, but we also need amazing teachers, non-profit leaders, coaches, small business leaders. And youth, even high school students, are pretty impressionable, and need the encouragement to be successful doesn't automatically mean to follow high income career. While I understand the high earner's subsidy argument, I think the net result is a school that is very narrow in its vision for its community and the future of its kids. It almost sounds like a club, and a not a school preparing kids, in the fullest way, for the future.[/quote] Are you me? Right down to the elite private in NJ. Spot-on.[/quote]
