<p>Hi looking forward,</p>
<p>I think your post #44 actually supports what I have already said.
You say:
US NEws is a profit venture and, like many sources, including NYT and WSJ, seeks attention and revenue from an audience that does not approach information with critical thinking.</p>
<p>In a previous post I say:
"I should, in the interest of full disclosure, say that the late Al Sanoff, a great man, who helped design the US News first college issues was a friend of mine. We traveled together for a week once and he helped publish an article he wanted me to write. I have nothing against US News for doing what any business is in business for: to sell stuff. "
What I say here and earlier in that same post seems to be what you echo here. Am I incorrect?</p>
<p>In your post you say:
I wouldn’t send my kid to UMiami over Dartmouth for plenty of reasons that have to do with specifics of education there, no matter which intellect told me that, for now, he thought it was “the best” for entrepreneurship. There are many factors that go into a right match. </p>
<p>In a previous post on this thread I say:
“I always tell students never go to the best school you get into. Go to the best match.”</p>
<p>Isn’t the ‘right’ match a match for what we are saying here? If not, how are we at odds? It appears to me we are on the same team (sports metaphor is purposeful) on both of these points.</p>
<p>Please let me know how we differ on this. Thank you so much.</p>
<p>I have been very impressed with how many people at the senior level pay very close attention to my posts. I have had lots of feedback and have learned much about edits, blogs, and what is and is not appropriate on CC. You volunteers spend a great deal of time and effort on this site and the fact that so many of you are looking over my shoulder to make sure I learn the ropes is a great tribute to you all.</p>
