[quote=Anonymous]Well since you want the information so badly, Ms. Wannabe Conspiracy Theory, why don't you just go ahead and ask the school directly? [quote=Anonymous]Yes, I have long wondered why Sidwell doesn't post a list of colleges and the number of students who have been admitted to, or have matriculated at, each in the past [number] of years. Other top schools do that, with no problem of violating their students' privacy. My theory as to why Sidwell doesn't publish the data is that their silence builds mystique and lets them stand out from the other schools. People are left to assume that their exmissions record must be stellar, when in fact they do no better than the other two of the "Big 3." This refusal to publish is rationalized as comporting with the Quaker idea that "we draw strength from silence," as stated in the school philosophy.[/quote][/quote]
