<p>Not that you’re pointing fingers at me, but let me just say that I was accepted, yes, and I am extremely proud of that, yes, but I did not respond to the “only minorities, recruited athletes, and legacies get in EDI” because I somehow feel as though I am better than him/her. As much as it is to be happy that we got in, I don’t feel as though we inflated ourselves in any way. And if anything, you can also say the same for the other side. If you were deferred last Saturday, I’m sorry, I truly am, but that doesn’t give you the right to make blatant derisive generalizations about those of us who did get in. </p>
<p>Why were you deferred? We have no idea. We never will. But take a look back at your essays (I heard those were especially important for Middlebury’s adcom) and application and reevaluate where YOU may have gone wrong instead of placing blame on everyone else.</p>
