No Overachiever Left Behind

Harvard has done away with their Early Admissions process. I've been saying for aeons that the college process is unfairly skewed to the advantage of the advantaged (including an expensive SAT prep course called "Advantage"). But now that Harvard have taken this important step in the right direction, all the College Board (and most school boards) have to do is revise the "time and a half" rules, recommend a universal cap on US tuition, and fix the public school system, and we might actually have edu-ma-cation in this country. Cake! I give it two years.

Be the herald of light, and the bearer of love,
Till the stock of the Puritans die,

~Andrea
