[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous] Then you agree that the accomplishment was well-deserved and not surprising, therefore, the media attention was unwarranted.[/quote] In my opinion, it is surprising that a student from DC was offered admission to five Ivy League colleges. Having learned more about the young man, it seems definitely well-deserved and perhaps less surprising for this particular individual given his personal history of achievement. The media attention is also deserved. When one of our major cable news networks is broadcasting 24/7 about a plane NOT being found, I find it hard to question the worthiness of any other news story.
