[quote=Anonymous]I personally would not mention having started a foundation to help the elderly or some such BS undertaking being done purely to put on a college resume. My SIL (whose kids are a few years younger and go to a fancy private school in a flyover state) was telling me about a kid who did this at her children's private school. She thought it was such a great idea, did a really great thing, and would really help the student get into a good college. My view is the high scores and geographic diversity this student brings is worth more than a foundation and that the faux foundation is a little embarrassing really. I like to think that A/Os are not that stupid. [/quote]
