[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The whole attraction of yale etc is that they are full of elite rich people who net work with each other and occasionally with a smart climber who manages to get in with the net work - it has nothing to do with the actual academics - if you went to a lottery system it would just be another version of top public schools - getting rid of the network through getting rid of legacies donors etc. is missing the whole point of these sorting hats for the ultra connected and rich - which alot of our children wouldn't get the benefit of even if they got in[/quote] Yale etc. work pretty hard to obscure this fact, though. They want you to believe that the kids they admit are smart and talented and intellectually driven, not just rich kids born on third base. [/quote]
