In light of the rape culture that supposedly plagues UVA, perhaps the term Cavalier should be dropped. How about the athletic teams adopt a new name, such as the Virginia Social Justice Warriors? Or the Virginia Woke Tide?
Oh, and by the way: ED is just a mechanism for colleges to identify families who are willing to pay full sticker price.
And this is your nugget of wisdom to revive a dead thread. Yawn.[/quote]

5 in at our W school, interestingly, two of the strongest were denied. I guess they thought it was safety.

Ooooh, you called me "sweetie", I'm so offended. I'm sure you love it when people do the same to you.
And I suppose "fair" to you means being lopsided in favor of your preferred group instead of 50-50.
Have a nice day, sweetie.
So, you're in favor of affirmative action? Because that's what you're asking for. If boys have lower stats, why should there be equal numbers?
Affirmative action doesn't mean what you think it means.

For someone not offended, you focused half your post on that fact. But, sure.
It's only not fair to you b/c your entitled son didn't get in when he'd been raised to believe, and thought, he'd skate in wherever he wanted. Now, he has to compete on his merits -not his gender and skin color. And, hon, my kid isn't even in HS yet.
