[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a very tired topic. Parents without athletes hate the recruited athlete hook. We get it. [/quote] We also get it. Parents with kids in sports but not good in academics or intelligence hate the smart, hardworking, academically talented kids and denigrate them as STRIVERS![/quote] Well, that didn't take long to fall into the "unqualified athlete" bit. It is hard for many of you to believe, but there are kids who are good enough athletically to be recruited and simultaneously are smart, hardworking, and academically talented. And most of the time, these are the ones that end up at top LACs. Sorry that doesn't fit your narrative. But it is the truth.[/quote] +1 indeed the LACs get a lot of all-rounders. I don't think it is a narrative issue with the STRIVERS poster, it is just ignorance.[/quote] Strivers don't really care about LACs[/quote]
