[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dont think colleges are thinking creatively enough. If I were a college, I'd reach out to 10 good high schools across the country and say, if get a crew of 5 kids with these stats (1400 sat, 3.4 GPA) to commit and we'll give you all full tuition (but not room and board) ride. If the college name was good *enough* like a Bennington or a Wooster, you might get kids from the bottom half of the class at TJ or Regis or Walter Payton to commit with friends. The colleges CDS looks better, they have a diverse geographic presence, and prepared kids. If the kids were smart, they'd say, let's do this together and then we can all pay for grad school, start a business, put down a down payment, whatever after graduation. [/quote] I work in higher education. Part of the reason colleges are in dire straits is because they are doing and have been doing too much of this. But thanks for your wisdom![/quote]
