<p>Yep, good ol Harvard, at my school, which received a D.</p>

<p>the class of 06 had 804 kids when i was a freshman, now as a senior, we barely have 400. Yep, Yep.</p>

<p>So why was Harvard here you ask?</p>

<p>Looking for minorities, yes.</p>

<p>I thought schools like that didnt go on quest like that because i know Harvard is one of the most diverse schools.</p>

<p>Looking for "Intelligent minority prospects in the 10th & 11th grades"</p>

<p>(i am a urm by the way and i know i was way out of my league so i didnt attend)</p>

<p>Any of your schools get big colleges on quest like this?</p>

<p>yea, i know. It really sucks here, my town is like spoiled rich kids-ville. (the median income is close to 100 grand) I can't wait to get out, only 4 more months. It was a pretty big shock when I first moved here. I had previously lived in manhattan beach, ca, peoria,il, and beaverton, or. All of which are pretty diverse...at least compared to dexter.</p>
