"We don’t need to sort and classify 18-year olds. It’s absurd. Stop trying to fix it and get rid of it."
Would the OP make the same argument about athletics? That 18-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo and 18-year-old Frankie Fatass, instead of being sorted and classified, should be put into the same soccer program?
- lapcat 3y agoWhich soccer program are you referring to? At age 18, Cristiano Ronaldo was not attending a nonprofit school, he was a member of a for-profit professional team.
- squokko 3y agoYes, differences between 18 year olds are extreme when you look at the best vs. the average
- lapcat 3y agoYou didn't answer my question.
- squokko 3y agoThe "soccer program" is the professional soccer team that Cristiano Ronaldo was on. Should Freddy Fatass have been playing for them too?
- lapcat 3y agoNo. This is why I said "Cristiano Ronaldo was not attending a nonprofit school, he was a member of a for-profit professional team." Harvard is a nonprofit school, financially supported by the government in various ways. The standards are different. If Harvard wants to act like a business, then it needs to give up its nonprofit status, forsake government support, and pay taxes as a business.
