[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm OP. We have family members on the board of several of these schools and he's also a recruited athlete with coaches' interest at several of them. [/quote] Assuming any of this is true (and it's probably not), way to out yourself with the family members on the board comment.[/quote] There are many board members at these schools (often 30+) with plenty of extended family. That doesn’t even include administrators’ extended family. Those connections don’t go as far as outsiders think. Regarding athletics, these schools generally recruit for hockey in large numbers then a trickle for other contact sports. Occasionally squash. It’s not as big a hook as the coaches make it out to be (unless you play hockey or are a future NESCAC QB)[/quote]
