[quote=Anonymous] 1) Either the entire thread is a self-serving invitation for DCUM'rs to advertise their schools without basis, or it is a meaningful invitation to tout the strengths of their schools which necessarily invites inquiry into the basis. 2) If the thread is to tout how happy parents are about their child's admission to college, then there is no reason to state what high school was attended. I believe those threads exist in some other forums from time to time. 3) By focussing on the school rather than the students' accomplishments (as is done, for example, on College Confidential), the issue is what has the school done, if anything, to further its emissions, and it is no secret that many DC area privates handicap their emissions by screening their admissions in the first place in various ways. There is no collateral damage contrary to the above poster's unfortunate suggestion otherwise which continues to undermine students. [/quote]
