I wonder how things would change if Tufts were ever to adopt merit scholarships. I suppose it revolves around ethics and money - is it necessary to “buy” students or is it better for a university’s reputation to stand alone on its own. Because this experiment hasn’t been adopted at Tufts we’ll never know, but it seems to have done well for a college such as USC. The difference between USC and Tufts is that Tufts has traditionally been a school of “higher” caliber without the same connotations of being a University of Second Choice (or has it LOL).
