The source is Gawker, the author is anonymous- and a “low-level” alum volunteer- and I’d bet money he didn’t have the access he claims to applications. His message is mixed- as an interviewer, he’s frustrated, including by the students, themselves. Well, interviewers are “eyes and ears,” not decision makers, not gatekeepers, for heaven’s sake. They have only a slice of a view of the admissions process.The colleges are grateful for their efforts.
