[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, to claim they need more students because the building is expensive is bogus. They purposely located in an area with high rents because they wanted to attracted high SES students. Look at Sela or YY. They chose to locate in cheaper rent areas, and were confident that despite the commute, they would be able to attract students from all areas of the city. Basis could have located in Ward 4 or 5 - which needs a MS/HS a heck of a lot more than Ward 1/3. [/quote] Yawn. They wanted a location accessible to anyone in the city who wanted to work hard. Basis didn't take the position (that Latin did) that people would suck it up and take on a miserable commute in addition to the demands of the program. [/quote]
