[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A unifying theme among ED admits from our Big 3 school (those that have posted their ED to social media) seems to be that they "started a nonprofit." One or two I have seen seem fulsome and ongoing. Others, not so much.

Is this the latest "angle" parents in the DMV are encouraging?

Good works, even if done for a short period of time, are still worthwhile.  And not all efforts will be successful.  But anecdotally, it is curious.

It is pathetic if causes and disadvantaged people are being used, in some transactional scam to misrepresent status-seeking teens as altruistic.

What a sad reason for bringing your kid to humanitarian work . These are likely the same parents who practically vomit when they hear their child wants to “waste” her degree (AKA “their investment”) on social work or teaching.
 Do you see how repellent you are?

I hope the schools see right through this tactic,  and reject such kids with gusto. [/quote]

Not that PP but you could view it as win-win, the kids are doing some good and getting some (probably overstated) benefits out of it.[/quote]
