I am realizing more lately, in reading the threads here on CC, that high school students tend to think of elite universities in a way similar to how young women in the 1950s - 1970s thought about their futures -- that they needed to be rescued by the right [man] (college), [whom they would marry] (get a great Corporate job out of college/get into a great grad school) and live happiliy ever after [eating bon bons and chatting on the phone with their similarly stress free rescued suburban friends] (doing whatever professionals do). |
