[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree, OP. Imagine if we handed out jobs based on athletic ability… sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it? Or if we handed out acceptances to medical school based on athletic ability. It sounds ridiculous because it is ridiculous, and it should stop.[/quote] It's not ridiculous. Smart kids are a dime a dozen. Athletic kids who can compete at a collegiate level are not. The schools compete against each other to get these kids enrolled. Signed mom of a smart, non-athletic kid who likes to go to the football games[/quote] Yep. I was the nerdy kid who married an athlete at Ivy. BTW, DH had high GPA and test score, so athletes are smart too. His HS's valedictorian played soccer at UPenn. [/quote]
