[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yale clubs are a sh*t-show of competitiveness, for all clubs, not just acapella/finance/club sports.  Just another way for the kids to make everything as miserable as possible for themselves.  The Ivies today sound just terrible.[/quote]

My public school/unhooked kid who showed up at Yale has not found this to be true. There are literally hundreds of clubs. Yes, some of them are competitive but see a comment I made earlier in this thread - These are student run organisations and they simply don’t have the ability of students to manage clubs with hundreds of students. It’s so easy to start clubs there, it happens all the time. My kid did not get into several clubs/teams for things that she was really successful at in high school (debate/MUN) and of course that was a little bit tough but she got into groups for lots of other things that have been great sources of learning and growing. Seriously, if they go into it with an open mind and cast their nets wide it works out.[/quote]
