Yeah. Makes total sense. Let’s never question the establishment. That’s led to great things. Thank you Mr. Republican. [/quote]

You are really irrational. Not a Republican and not a man. But please continue in your full on rage against alumni. You do realize that without interviews it might be significantly harder for Big 3 kids to get in... no APs, no awards and unless they do travel low level sports except maybe crew, Ice Hockey and squash.  It seems like your anger is misplaced. I am sorry senior year has not gone as planned. It’s very tough. [/quote]

You have no business interviewing MINORS. Just because you graudated from a top school doesnt make you qualified. Self justification is embarrassing.[/quote]

Qualified? To do what? Interview 17-18 year old kids at Starbucks to tick off a box? What exactly are you afraid of?  [/quote]

The poster is afraid that a person will be harshly or negatively judge his/her child, in a way that is not consistent with most interviewer's standards, resulting in a negative impact to the child's application.  [/quote]

Seeing as interviewers are posting statements on this forum that they are on the look out for "disastrous" candidates so that they can give the admissions committee a warning, that would seem to be a legitimate fear.[/quote]

What if the kid is disturbing? Hmm. Some are. [/quote]

What if the interviewer is disturbing?   Hmm.  Some are.[/quote]

Then call the admissions office and complain. They'll take the claim seriously.

Just self report.  No where, at no ivy, is the alumni interview described as a vehicle for interviewers to find and flag children they see as disturbing.  If you see this as the mission, you should turn yourself in and stop doing alumni interviews.[/quote]
