While you certainly have a point, MITs actions in this case, and in the case of Star Simpson show what looks to me (as an outsider who really wants to go to an elite college) like MIT doesn't stand behind their students the way that I would expect an elite college to stand behind their students.
I mean, maybe that's just the way it is; maybe being a student at an elite institution just doesn't come with the level of privilege than I think it comes with; Maybe Stanford would have done the same thing (though my impression is that they would not.) like I said, I'm an outsider here, but the actions of MIT faculty in these two cases have significantly diminished how much I want to become a student there.
