<p>So BCM, if you will, let’s run with this new charge of yours for a little while instead of just clocking up a few more drive-by rants. Are you saying that of the 2,000+ applicants they received last year, the HMC Admissions staff deliberately selected one or more students they knew could not handle the curriculum (and if this one is from the inner city, presumably received financial assistance from HMC) and would end up dropping out, thus reducing the College’s graduation rate?</p>

<p>What, exactly, would be their motivation to do that?</p>
