In MIT admissions, race matters in itself (not just as context) -- MIT court filing

<p>"admissions is 100% need-blind"</p>

<p>Oh ok, so like they wouldn't be able to tell the economically disadvantaged unless implied through the app?</p>

<p>admissions is also blind. which explains all the ugly girls.</p>

<p>Yay pebbles! </p>

<p>"Oh ok, so like they wouldn't be able to tell the economically disadvantaged unless implied through the app?"</p>

<p>I imagine so? But really I'm not sure, though obviously being economically disadvantaged won't hurt you.</p>

<p>MollieB - Game, set and match. :)</p>

<p>"Would Ben make a good woman?"</p>

<p>Gorgeous, Mollie. And ultimately I think that's the essential question, the one which, if it remains unanswered, will really shake the universe to its foundations.</p>

<p>Well, to be fair, that would dull the original rationale for joining.</p>

<p>Story: in sixth grade, my hair was so long that I was routinely mistaken for a girl. </p>

<p>(By the way, GracieLegend is an MIT employee and was paid rather impressive sums of money to deprive me of all hope of continuing the underlying debate, which is probably good for everyone.)</p>

<p>Ahaha. MIT and Caltech kids are both silly.</p>

<p>Thread transitions: Affirmative Action -> Hot girls -> Sand where it doesn't belong -> The female Ben Golub</p>

<p>crap i missed such a long discussion..stupid CC didn't mail me any notifications....</p>

<p>Anyways I am going to WPI this fall..so maybe I'll lurk around MIT and harvard and then testify for the truth myself...</p>

<p>Gracie, you remind me of everything I hated about high school.</p>

<p>All I can say is, thank god for real women. Hopefully one day you'll grow up enough to feel the same way.</p>

<p>In the meantime, let's kill two birds with one stone: we'll give Gracie a pic of his ideal woman and simultaneously answer a question posed previously in this thread:</p>

<p><a href="http://web.mit.edu/benjones/www/misc/golubette.jpg%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://web.mit.edu/benjones/www/misc/golubette.jpg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>(Sorry Ben G., I had to. But hey, I just improved your chances for Alpha Phi.)</p>

<p>hahahahahahaha! ben j., you are a complete genius, though that picture inspires a fair bit of fear.</p>

<p>this is clearly a sign that MIT is not getting the most out of you during the off-season</p>

<p>;-)</p>

<p>btw, i know the names of eight or ten horror movie art directors that will be happy to pay you eight or ten times what Marilee Jones does :-D</p>

<p>BenJones: Come on man, this is unbecoming of you. You're making posts on an Internet message board to a bored, stupid college freshman like myself?? </p>

<p>Not only that, but your post itself is worthy of a high schooler, let alone a responsible, well-educated adult. What are we, in fifth grade? Is transfering a man's face onto a woman your idea of high-brow humor? Why didn't you add a draw-on mustache and beard, too? Every funny third grader knows you need that!</p>

<p>Most importantly, you actually spent time making that just to show up an idiot, worthless college freshman (me)? What does that say about you, and how secure you feel about yourself??</p>

<p>Look, it's one thing when stupid college freshmen/high school seniors waste their time on message boards writing worthless tripe to one another. (me, Laura, pebbles, rheasilva, etc, etc.)</p>

<p>I know I'll look back on this in 2 years and shake my head at how stupidly I wasted my life. God knows how many times I've done this in life already. </p>

<p>But dude, you're a serious adult. With a serious job. You should be looking down upon this the same way mothers look upon 5-year olds squabbling about broken crayons. </p>

<p>Just wasting your time responding to an idiot like myself degrades you, even if you wrote a mature, eloquent, cogent response.</p>

<p>But responding in the manner you did, complete with a sophomoric picture??</p>

<p>Come on Ben Jones, you're better than that. After all, you're supposed to be setting the example here. </p>

<p>BTW, here's an article written by a man light-years ahead of me in intelligence and life experience. Is he a worthless idiot too?</p>

<p><a href="http://www.tuckermax.com/archives/entries/are_people_at_the_university_of_chicago_actually_as_ugly_and_unsociable_as_we_think.phtml%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.tuckermax.com/archives/entries/are_people_at_the_university_of_chicago_actually_as_ugly_and_unsociable_as_we_think.phtml&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>@ Ben G. - someone will pay me $10/hr?!? Sign me up!! :-)</p>

<p>@ Gracie - only the first two lines of my post were for you. The rest of the post was to lighten the thread you hijacked for everyone else.</p>

I found it quite amusing, though ... almost sexy ;)</p>

<p>The girls in that canon picture...(maybe due to the relative proximity)...are they mainly East Campus girls?</p>

<p>i shudder at the wrath that is about to befall you, poor child.</p>

<p>Hahaha...Thats one link Gracie...hey but btw thats about UChicago.</p>

<p>oh and yeah spartan, they're east campus/senior house girls. to be honest we aren't as cute as west campus girls, but that's cause we have multicolored hair and study physics. :o</p>

<p>hmmm...this isn't related...but just coz all you people are here so i thought maybe someone can give me the link to that site...Caltech Vs MIT...whjere they keep score for the gags the two pulled over each other..</p>
