So you're saying that a proper university fails some amount of students who understand the material in order to acquire prestige from the appearance of stringency? Or that a double-digit percentage of admitted students are, for some reason, incompetent?
- revelation 11y agoNo, I'm saying a good university makes a large-ish proportion of students realize that this isn't what they signed up for.

- Riseed 11y agoI posit that a good university has an ethical admissions office, and an ethical admissions office helps students realize this isn't want they signed up for before they get to the "signed up for" part.
- CydeWeys 11y agoWhy do you think that a good university should necessarily be incompetent at telling students what they're in for? That they have to pull bait-and-switches? I knew exactly what I was getting into at my university.
