They’ve probably got a whole closet full of sent back t-shirts and and sweatshirts. And the parents of rejects can be worse than the kids. I talked to an MIT adcom last year, and she said that the phones start ringing off the hook as soon as the decisions go out. She said a common question from some bitter parents is a demand to know how much the adcoms earn - the implication being that someone so low-paid cannot possible sit in judgement of their child.
