[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are dealing with volunteers. They have varying levels of investment in the process. Many may also have become disillusioned, because their input has such a minimal impact.

BUT, I do agree that this is not respectful to your child, for whom this feels like a very high stacks moment.[/quote]

I agree, but I also think the child was far more disrespectful in hanging up on the interviewer. That was an arrogant and immature snub. It does not compensate for the lack of respect shown by the interviewer. [/quote]

I'm PP and it is my kid.  No it was not an arrogant and immature snub.  The interviewer scheduled an appointment during their kids soccer game, was not engaged at all and my child after asking to reschedule and being ignored decided to end the conversation.  Kids work hard and have pride, the interviewer representing the university was the one that acted arrogantly and snubbed an interested hard working perspective student.  The fact that you don't get that is pathetic.[/quote]

I get it, you just don't like my perspective (or you incorporated hyperbole initially).  If your kid just hung up, that was rude.  I get that the interviewer was inconsiderate,  but your kid trying to school them was arrogant, and it doesn't help the situation. Part of interviewing is dealing with situations like this with grace. Complain to admissions after the cycle to change it. This just makes your kid look bad too.[/quote]
