[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious if the anti-NEU trolls are the same one constantly disparaging UChicago's admissions marketing?

They kind of use the same nutso language.  If they are, why do they feel the need to save the world from these schools?  It is really surprising to see a person have such a hate for a university.[/quote]

Those who are mentally ill are triggered by certain things, and (in this case) college rejection becomes one of their (many) traumas.  ie: the parent latches onto the rejection. Their weak attempt at a smear crusade is a temporary dopamine hit, which is clearly not what they really need to achieve stable mental health. Add in fellow downtrodden and rejected parents, and Viola!  Welcome to the College and University Discussion of DCUM! It is a shame because there could be some honestly legitimate positive information being exchanged, and threads such as this one detracts.

I understand those familiar with a school defending OP's false accusations, what I do not understand is OP and those like them continuing their crusade so often.  Those that are not accepted to a school do not have first hand information that those who are accepted have, it is quite simple. Such is mental illness - insanity is the act of doing something over again, expecting a different result.

Good luck to fellow parents, may they handle their losses and those of their children's with grace, maturity, and the cognitive ability to react appropriately.  [/quote]
