<p>Calmom, you blew some good points with the gratuitous slaps. I don't like the "get-recruited" website and I don't like that it's being run by Rosenfield. But you can make your points without slapping around UL-Lafayette, Louisiana in general, and kids who "only got an 18 on the ACT math and a 2.6 GPA". </p>
<p>For what it's worth, UL-Lafayette doesn't "take all comers" and has a good albeit regional reputation. If you want a career in petroleum engineering or geology, for example, you could do a lot worst. Also for what it's worth, your hypothetical kid would have a difficult time getting into UL-L -- but the real question is, who the hell cares, and who the hell are YOU to dump on some kid with "only" an 18 on the ACT and a 2.6 who wants to go to college?</p>
<p>And I'm not a graduate of UL-L, but I know several people who are and I've never heard them take such ridiculous potshots like you did.</p>
