[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This chain makes me so sad. “Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of life, and not something you do in your spare time.” Marian Wright Edelman To whom much is given, much will be required (Luke 12:48). We should be held responsible for what we have. If we have been blessed with talents, wealth, knowledge, time, and the like, it is expected that we benefit others. [/quote] Look, I hear you. But there are already enough expectations on these kids. If you want to prioritize this, and that would be a good thing, then lay off the requirement for a billion APs (all As, TYVM), the checklist of activities, required electives, etc. just to be CONSIDERED for a top college. There is simply not enough time in the day/week to require this. [/quote]
