[quote=Anonymous]One thing that bears recognition: People slight Landon for the SAT scandal, the Duke lacrosse fiasco (despite the fact that it wasn't true, it still seems to be etched in people's minds), and now George Huguely. However, an important fact that people fail to recognize is that Landon has a different headmaster now than from when all of this went down. When GH attended Landon, when the Duke kids attended Landon, and when the SAT scandal happened, it all occurred under the tutelage of Landon's previous headmaster. Which is why he was essentially fired. Also, the school replaced their Upperschool Head + Middle school head. Landon's new headmaster has done a really good job of trying to get the school back on track, mainly by bolstering the schools arts/music programs and trying to get back to the whole "renaissance man" approach. It seems inane to judge Landon TODAY based off of all of those incidents that reflect Landon of the past.[/quote]
