I will admit that I stopped reading many of the replies to this post because they just became so petty and “woe is me”! Top schools are not simply admitting students - they are selecting a class! Perhaps the athlete mentioned will add alot (aside from his baseball ability) to his class at Stanford! Many of you, original poster in particular, need to grow up! You do not know everything about a particular applicants credentials. What gives you the right to diminish athletic talent? There are many positive charateristics that athletes bring to a situation such as leadership,discipline, and tenacity - just to name a few.
