<p>I have been really impressed by the responses of new member ExieMITAlum, and so I’m going to pull two of his quotes from a recent post to elucidate my earlier points:</p>
<p>“It’s not the school, people — it’s the student and what he or she does with the education they get at BS.”</p>
<p>“I do think “reputation” both helps and hurts. Helps it attract the most competitive student but some of those students are amazing on paper and amazingly uncreative or uninspiring in real life. Sometimes the “best students” can’t be quantified and are sitting in Joe Schmoe school waiting for the right climate to spread their wings and soar.”</p>
<p>and finally:
“The school and the child will both select each other. Let’s see what happens next.”
That’s again, ExieMITAlum.</p>
