Seriously. This is really not helpful. We’re talking about 17-year olds, with limited knowledge and exposure to colleges “at this point”. These things may have little or no tangible meaning or significance to them. They can go to info sessions and on campus tours, and hear about these things, but that doesn’t necessarily help them have a real understanding of what they mean, or more importantly, how it will affect their college time. So they came here and asked – good for them! Let’s try and make things clearer for them, not chastise them.
