<p>How about a reality TV show. The ADCOM of a selective university. Is the director like Oz, all powerful and making the decisions of who gets to go to Kansas. Maybe it’s like survivor and alliances are formed…vote for my kids from NOVA and I’ll vote for your kids from NJ. Or the housewives…I’m sick of Ms So&so getting all her kids in from MA every year. I’m blocking her kids this year. Maybe it’s like a bunch of Cardinals voting on a new Pope. It would be entertaining. Most students and parents view adcoms as more secreative than the CIA. Do they care about USNWR rankings? Are their outside financial pressures from the administration placed on them to help the university bottom line? It would be fun to see from the inside.</p>
