[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By the way, 12:03/12:41, our exchange will be a lot more productive if you'd quit disrespecting and insulting me. I know you disagree with me. It does not improve your credibility when you repeatedly say I have "no clue" or "know nothing" or am "naive." Instead of wasting words with snarky comments, focus on proving your points.[/quote] I'm holding back. I was going to say something like, "yes, yes, dearie, I'm sure if you lined the kids at STA and Whitman up by GPA, and then compared family tax returns one-for-one, you'd find an exact correspondence in family financial situations." And then I was going to suggest you shouldn't worry your pretty little head about this stuff, and instead go drop $250 on your highlights at the salon. We've been in the position of choosing between a Bethesda house and Whitman/BCC vs. Eastern MoCo and private. You clearly haven't. If we had gone for the Bethesda house, we wouldn't be able to pay for DCs Ivy now. Absolute truth.[/quote] [quote]My last question: are you a school AD? Because I can't believe that anybody without a really serious investment in this question would be making the arguments you're making. [/quote] It's unfortunate you cannot participate in a meaningful discussion. Since you are offering only insults, and precious few substantive contributions, I will exit as well. FWIW, I'm not employed by any school. My family's HHI is <350k, and we live in Eastern MoCo. You really ought to check your assumptions, and your attitude.[/quote] Wow. Way to cut and paste the less friendly points and ignore every single substantive challenge to your contention that Whitman families are exactly the same, financially, as private school families. By now we expect this sort of thing from you, though.[/quote]
