[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academics are a real meritocracy. I think you are much better off in a school filled with really smart kids with bright competitive futures in diverse intellectual pursuits over a school filled with people who peak athletically when they are 18. But hey the real estate industry isn't going away any time soon.[/quote] What misguided snobbery. Two words for you: Kevin Plank St John's High School Class of 1990 A famous bit of advice to new college professors. "Be nice to your "A" students as they will become your colleagues. Be nice to your "C" students because they will be donating buildings to the university". And it seems to me that the real estate people were the only ones in DC to have the money to bring a baseball team to DC.[/quote] Genuinely curious. Did Plank win any prizes for his athletics in HS and set any records, or was he meh in both academics and sports?[/quote]
