<p>Fauxnom, Yes, I see your point. Tact and humility are important qualities. Dare I say 'learned" qualities for some/maybe for all. Not being accepted at a few colleges/universities may start his learning curve in this area. And realizing at college that you are now only 1 of many bright talented people may also be an eye-opener. Not all learning at college takes place in the classroom:)
