[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can see the DOJ suing private universities for promoting “lived experiences”[/quote]
It's the right thing to do. They better do it![/quote]

Thats silly.  Lived experience is what contributes to who we are.  For example, a student demonstrating grit by overcoming homelessness or poverty is a lived experience.  Why should that not be shared?  Because that might give them a boost over student from a wealthy family in a private high school with well funded research opportunities and test prep?  Please...[/quote]

They can incorporate that into any essay or supplemental. These lived experience ones have become the mandatory essays and they are pretty stupid.  These kids are 18. 90% of them haven’t “lived” yet. [/quote]

Your kid truly has no lived experience to discuss? It’s not that hard to find something to write about.  A little creativity would help.[/quote]g

He’s at Ivy, thanks.  It is such a stupid thing.  And, yes, he took it in a funny, creative way because this trauma sh@t and holistic stuff has gotten so out of hand—and I voted for Harris. I’m not even a conservative. [/quote]
So…there was no issue and you wanted to make one out of a situation where your DS ended up on top?[/quote]
