I mean, totally clueless.
He is EXACTLY what they are looking for.
+1. They want to make world leaders. Not cater to geniuses
Let them do that on their own dime. Don't suck on the tax payer for grants then. In thirty years, the brand name of Harvard is going to be shit unless they stop catering to leftist SJW's. I can't wait till their funding gets pulled.
Leftist, unpatriotic, racist hypocrites. I'm so glad their endowment is being taxed. I hope the tax rate gets jacked up to the top marginal income tax rate.

Harvard isn't interested in your definition of who deserves to go there. It's weird that people are so critical of their admission policies, yet still want their kid to go to school there. Your fellow students ARE the experience of attending g a university, so if you hate the admission policies, you should probably dislike the school enough not to want to attend.
Not pp here -- what makes you think I want my kid to attend Harvard? It has become a parody of itself.
As someone who has read Mr. Hogg's tweets and seen his interviews, it is clear that Harvard values ideological purity and zeal over critical thinking and communication skills.

It’s a great hook.
I found find your comment so distasteful. What this kid and his classmates went through I wouldn't ever want my kids to experience even if it meant they would get automatically accepted into Harvard. He heard the screams and anguish of his classmates. He tried to escape and flee but luckily a janitor told him to turn back and hide. He hid with other students in a closet like sitting ducks hoping not to get slaughtered. He was texting with his little sister hoping she didn't get killed either.
Then to be strong enough to lead a youth movement against gun violence is remarkable.
He certainly didn't do it for a hook.
All of this is true. I feel for all of those kids. But it has nothing to do about his qualifications to attend an elite university. Our country is bizarre. An elite education, with the best professors, the best labs and libraries and the most intellectual peers (all subsidized by both the US government and by US philanthropy), should be reserved for those who are most academically able to use this opportunity to better our country. We fritter away those extremely limited spots trying to make social policy, and by "enhancing diversity" to bring in a large number of international students. Are we better off helping kids from all backgrounds attend college? Yes, but not at our top institutions. Meanwhile, we push more able kids down the food chain in a weird mismatch of talent and resources.

No. This thread is a parody. Clueless and simultaneously envious parents who are obsessed with grades and rank instead of quality of the students they are raising. Good for Hogg and good for Harvard.
Parents cluelessly push their kids to be robotic students. AP scholar! National Merit! If you over study to achieve those things, leaving no time for other endeavors, it wasn’t worth doing.

+1 I wonder if Russian trolls have taken over some of these posts to discredit a child who will clearly be the kind of leader necessary for the survival of our democracy.
