[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would change the character and quality of the education. Not everyone wants to go to a University with 28,000 undergraduates. And [b]last time I checked, there was no right to an Ivy education.[/b] HPY could fill their incoming classes with valedictorians, twice over. Any mindset that equates hard work with entitlement to admission is warped on the front end.[/quote] I keep hearing this.. Sure. I don't have a right to their education. I should also have the right to not have my tax $ subsidize them, shouldn't I? Why not remove the non-profit nature of these institutions? After all, they operate like a secret cabal, with ambiguous admission rules that pretty much guarantees that 99.99% of all children (i.e. future tax payers) will not benefit from them. Why not pull the tax benefit? Their fees will go up, you say? Sure. Let it. Let it quadruple for all I care. See how quickly they drop all their "URM" and "first-gen" pretenses. [/quote]
