[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, what would happen to elite college admissions without lacrosse? This bizarre activity- as egregious an example of Native American cultural appropriation as you'll find anywhere- appears to have become the sole means by which [b]good looking[/b], athletic young white men are admitted to selective colleges these days. 60 years ago, America's top colleges and universities were filled with WASPs....now it seems only the lacrosse teams are. Why not complete the ongoing transformation of America's "elite" institutions of higher education by killing off lacrosse altogether? Then top colleges will just be a desert of high SAT aspies, STEM nerds, billionaire kids, FGLI strivers, and foreign students as far as the eye can see.   That's what the admissions offers really want, after all.[/quote]

The guys at my DD's HS who play lacrosse are indeed athletic and male, but not at necessarily good-looking in her humble opinion. [/quote]
