[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So a bunch of kids are paying full tuition at Landon and Prep and then they go to Bullis on a financial need scholarship.

Thou doth Protest too much, methinks.[/quote]

I know the Hamlet reference but don't get your application here.  Usually it means that someone who protests so vehemently is guilty of doing the same thing.  The senior transfer thing is only happening at Bullis -- that's verifiable.  I guess you could be suggesting that Prep and Landon also give hidden athletic scholarships?  They are not known for doing so -- right now all the accounts involve Bullis.

To reach back to the 90s, a lot more people heard of UNLV because of their winning ways in basketball.  The notoriety didn't translate into increased academic respect for the institution.

Bullis is, I'm sure, still doing all the good things it's been doing in recent years, most notably offering high quality teaching and small class sizes in the setting of a co-ed, secular school in MoCo.  My own view is that they way they're pursuing sports success will not help their overall standing in the DMV independent school market, but they may have marketing data to suggest otherwise.[/quote]
