[quote=Anonymous]The tipping point at Prep was when overqualified kids grades/scores wise were declined admission at Prep. Brian Gilbert and Jeff Jones hated Giblin so much they actually made moves to smoke applicants out and to smoke Giblin out in his last year. We know one family where the kid who listed lacrosse was admitted to each of the Big 3 but rejected by admissions at Prep. How does that happen? Malice. Pure malice. That same kid is headed to an Ivy in the fall. Considering Prep is a school where the only chance they had in the recent 10 years to get kids into coveted non-Jesuit colleges was lacrosse, the Gilbert and Jones strategy was stupid. Nothing uglier than an Irish Catholic land war where the economic stakes are so low and the egos are so high. Yeah, I'd say all involved 'had issues'. [/quote]
