@UVA how does an in-state, real 4.0 student with full rigor, excellent scores, considerable extras, leadership and a full post 911 scholarship not get accepted - did I already mention in-state? Help me find a way to explain that isn’t all blah blah blah.

@akilbello Doesn’t line up at all with the latest SOCA report. More like 9%

[Cathy@strategiesforcollege @CopelandTitus]

@erichoov Wow. The Ivory tower grows taller.

@erichoov Human nature is we gravitate toward the familiar - for better or worse - admissions people are no different.

@keytocollege Self-doubt can be crippling and highly impact a students college process and eventual success. How can we help our students stay focused on their own journey and not get csught up in peer frenzy?

Good article but a missed opportunity to show data on where race-based and class based group overlap. I imagine its a lot but the devil is in the details. And what about all the disparities in K-12. Ripping off the bandaid without a plan is place is just asking for hemorrhaging

For once, David Brooks is more right than wrong.

However, his solution means the wealthy will be told they cannot buy something that the poor can get for free or low cost.

To that, I say, "Good luck, my dude." #EMTalk
