Seth Owen, a high school valedictorian from Florida whose parents ostracized
him because of his sexuality, has reportedly been offered a full-ride
scholarship to attend Georgetown University in the fall.
Owen, who graduated from First Coast High School in Jacksonville with a 4.16

fundraising page to raise money for his first year's tuition at Georgetown.

先废话一下严肃的,关于国内的父母愿意出高价送孩子出国这件事。
两年前的夏天,我妈在国内的同事到美国来出差,还带来了她16岁的女儿。这位阿
姨国内某知名大学的博士教授,丈夫经商,家里非常有米。今年5月,她发信给我妈,
说想让女儿出国读书,问我妈能不能帮着查查这边的私立学校,能不能给她寄回去一本
英语课本。我娘和我表示很鸭梨,因为美国高中不使用统一的英语课本。目前流行的众
多课本其实也无一例外就是不同体裁的文学名著的节选本而已,该选择用哪几本名著教
学还是由县教育部和老师们自行决定。所以,一本英文课本的参考作用其实不大。
后来我和我妈又谈起这位阿姨。为了女儿在私立学校的教育,她愿意付每年4W美金
的学费。我娘猛颤了一下,小声问我,“那不是跟哈佛的学费一样了么?”
每年4W的学费……真的值得么?
可能照国内的习惯来说(说错了还请原谅哟),私立学校的教育质量是普遍很好的
。但在这里却不一定,私立学校可以是教会学校,可以是救济学校等等,质量惊人地参
差不齐。那些非常优秀的私立学校大多都是极有政治背景的,所谓贵... 阅读全帖

1)统计数据几乎没有用,因为十年前甚至四年前的统计数据,和该案的原告是否被歧

2)ACT 满分,SAT II 满分的考生,比比皆是。很难说没被录取是被歧视的结果。以这

it's my view that this strategy is mostly used for getting into a good state

the top 7% - you have a better chance of being in the top 7% at a lesser
school than a nationally ranked one. so if you are determined that you kids
