[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The OP’s initial observation about colleges carries a lot of truth. If top colleges continue to weighing diversity and social justice ahead of test scores and merit, before long a degree from a “top college” will not carry the value that it did historically. [/quote] Exactly! The issue is not the death of private schools, but rather the death of elite colleges. In less than one generation from now, the Ivys and similar schools will become niche schools, and lesser known schools that base admissions purely on merit and lower the D&I drumbeat will emerge as the new elite education. [/quote] As long as they can convince the wealthy to send their kids and to recruit their graduates, they will be fine. There is absolutely no indication that either is changing. [/quote]
