[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read a statistic the other day that caused me to take notice. The top 50 colleges in the country combined have space for less than 1% of all US high school graduates (yes, this list includes University of Wisconsin and UMichigan). Access is reduced to less than 1% US grads when you also consider foreign students. These statistics are far more relevant than the "exclusivity" or selectively of a school as measured by percentage admits. What a luxury to look down our noses at schools like these when [b]MOST on this planet can't even consider them as an option[/b].[/quote] Fuck "most on this planet". US colleges do not exist for them. US colleges exist [i]for Americans[/i]. [/quote] These colleges are not an option for over 99% of Americans according to the statistic since they accomodate less than 1% of all US high school grads. [/quote]
