[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I’d like my kids to go to a school that values diversity. Better for their personal growth, and also for things that go beyond them - like representation and diversity in exchange of ideas. What makes me squeamish is these sorts of essays that put an outsized value on features about a student that the student can’t change, and make some of these characteristics - that can’t be changed - appear to be more highly valued than others. The result is pressure to produce essays featuring these characteristics (many of which may not feel sincere and will be performative) at the expense of potentially much more interesting stories and thoughts about big ideas and interests. [/quote] Agreed.[/quote]
