<p>This will be my last post on the subject. I’ve been called narrow focused. I’m crucified on this board for stating what I truly want. No one wants to hear the truth based on facts and statistics for someone in my shoes. Diversity is important but the college experience needs to be more. The facts are that I as someone who gained entry to a wonderful university such as UPenn will not be able to have a complete and fulfulling college experience, entering as a wide-eyed and naive freshman and exiting as a confident, educated person with a wonderfully compatible partner with whom I can enter the next phase of life be it grad school or the working world. It’s been my dream. From those on this board, I can’t seem to have that dream. I am supposed to want diversity and find “miss right” in the form of a jap (yes I did mean jewish american princess, not a derogatory term), or a christian asian, or some weird mixed person from a strange family background who I won’t ever be able to truly relate to. I love family. I want the family of my true love to get along with mine. It’s important to us and to our future especially if it includes children. How confusing is it to children when there are significant differences and strife within and among family members. With differing and incompatible faiths, customs, traditions, values, etc. this happens. In my view, I know that I want and am basing this on what I know of successful relationships. I haven’t dated much in HS, I’ve been focusing on grades, work, and friends. And formulating my goals and I know what I want career-wise and in a partner. Yes, maybe I should have gone elsewhere. But despite my weaknesses, UPenn wants me and I have been accepted. Why can’t this top university offer it all to someone like me? Pennboy25 OVER AND OUT.</p>
