What was the thought process in making choices for acceptance to any academic institution for this person?

Why did this person apply to Williams to begin with?

Clearly, fit, fore-seability never entered this person’s “raison d’etre” in pursuing a post secondary education.

She needs to go to UMCP, for this is her only choice.

Having the academic ability to enter into a great institution is only one aspect of an education. Why waste such an experience on someone who has no idea why they are there. They will only be unhappy here as they cannot appreciate its value.

I knew of a girl who scored 800’s on her SAT’s yet went to a school that was not even within any 4 tier school list. I believe she went to an unaccredited Christian College because of her imagined higher calling from up on high.

No point in putting fools in an extraordinary place, for only those who have a profound appreciation of what Williams has to offer can only avail themselves of its opportunities and thus be a profound credit to its alma mater.
