Anybody have the scoop on the Harvey S. Mudd Merit Award?

<p>To geek_mom –</p>

<p>It is competitive to get the supersmart, inner city minority student. Most go to a local state school, the Ivy league, or a known liberal arts college like Reed, Mt. Holyoke. I don’t blame them for trying, but when I told them that his school was terrible, the math was pathetic, they should have had a realistic discussion with me. </p>

<p>If he gets help or some way to make up the work/tests during his illness, I’ll post a retraction. </p>

<p>I just want to get a warning up while recruitment season is full blast.</p>

<p>BCM – If I were in the position you describe, my focus would not be on lashing out at the college; it would be on doing everything I could to help my son. If you are for real, help your son – email Mary Cardenas now.</p>

<p>You won’t hear from me again. The warning is up. I was also looking for useful suggestions. I received some privately.</p>
