Rejection Letter Burning!

<p>Today at my school was Senior Rejection Letter Burn Day (a school sponsored event!..actually run by the college office)…we had a big pizza party and we all burned our rejection letters one by one with a little statement for each one…Do any other schools do this? It was SO much fun!-</p>

<p>I tore up the rejection letters and ate the pieces :D</p>

<p>I am tearing up the waitlist letters and sending the pieces back to the colleges :D</p>

<p>j/k :p</p>

<p>that’s a good idea CubsRule… I’m gonna suggest that To our student gov…</p>

<p>That is a good idea. I think all schools should do something like this.</p>

<p>This probably wouldn’t work at my school since only 1% of the class at most (though usually closer to .7%) applies to elite colleges, and only another 5%-7% go for 50-50 schools. Most stay in-state or go for the regional universities. So only a super small amount of the class would actually be burning letters.</p>

<p>Wow… If this was 2 years ago and I was still in ASB I’d bring that us as an idea for an event, it sounds like fun!</p>

<p>Yeah…I go to a relatively small school (~80 kids/class) and 100% of us apply to colleges…so most of us have some kind of rejection letter…The kids who dont have anything to burn tests, or anything they really want for that matter…</p>

<p>Burn Baby Burn!</p>
