[quote=Anonymous]At many schools your fate is essentially decided by the one admission’s office person that reads your application. That person will have their own opinion as to the value of being an Eagle Scout. As anyone not living under a rock knows, scouting has been controversial in recent years due to their exclusionary practices with regard to homosexuals. In my admittedly liberal social circle, scouting is not something we’d ever consider for our children. I know others, especially those in the evangelical movement, still embrace scouting. So my guess is that if the person making the decision is a social conservative the Eagle Scout award could be a BIG plus. If the person reviewing the application is a social liberal, the Eagle Scout award could be something of a minus. Obviously those in the admissions office aren’t going to tell you if they are liberal or conservative, but you can probably make an educated guess based on the type of school and its location.[/quote]
