[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is at a HYPSM and working their butt off. No coddling there. Demanding academics![/quote]The Ivy is hard so my is not being coddled!! Please. Academic rigor and institutional coddling can absolutely coexist. Demanding excellence in narrowly defined academic areas while failing to develop students' resilience, independence, and ability to function in less structured environments seems exactly what many on DCUM are looking for in Ivies (probably what they don't like about Cornell) and other private schools. Coddling seems exactly what people are looking for.[/quote]
