se. So I'm listening michael sandel's lectures on justice while doing some busywork, and he takes questions and comments from the audience pretty frequently. to a man, all these people are complete idiots. I feel like I'm back at my old lower t1 that I transferred out of again listening to this shit. there's the guy who got MAF when sandel described Rawls and is all like, "i DESERVE to have gotten in at Harvard, my SAT score is the fruit of my labor! and when people run a race, even if the fastest person doesn't "deserve" his speed, the fastest person encourages the person behind him to run faster, and he encourages the person behind him, and then another, and another, in a mutual circle jerk of encouragement! and Michael Jordan worked very hard to get where he is, his life wasn't no picnic!" There's the girl who suggested that rich people wouldn't do any work if they had to pay substantial taxes. some other girl was like, "um, I think that, like, maybe not [mr. i deserve this], but, like, in my case, maybe, like, my family, um, background maybe um helped me to be where I am today, maybe, and, uh, that, like, socio... economics can help, affect, that. yeah." seriously?

I feel like a 1500+ scorer, which most HUG students will be (right?), should at least get a 165 on the LSAT; I had no idea HUG > Suffolk Law people existed. wouldn't it be phenomenally dumb to go to a tt law school out of HUG? there are so many better things they could do.
and yeah, I'm sure the average HUG student is brighter than that of a lower-ranked school, but I thought the average HUG student was actually really smart. I mean, I went to a top ten college, and while I'm sure the people there were a lot smarter than the average American college student, they generally couldn't write or think at an especially high level. for some reason I thought that at HYP this wasn't the case.

Um no. There are many at HYP that don't think at an especially high level. Athletes, legacies, minorities, and many others. People getting in solely on academic merit is probably like 20%.

Unless you have 5 stages of interviews and other crazy rigorous processes for assuring that every single student is exactly as advertised, you're going to end up with some mediocrity when picking kids out of high school. Also, HYP didnt get to be HYP just by taking a bunch of 1600s and calling it a day. Athletics, varied AA class, a certain number of legacy/connected candidates (who tend to be successful and also build endowment networks), etc. are traits without which they would not have been able to achieve the status, academic and cultural, that these schools enjoy. If that means couple kids say dumb shit in class every so often, I think that's a trade-off they're comfortable with.

so are Harvard kids supposed to have the entire class figured out before they even take it?
That was one of the really nice things about going to State U for UG, I never felt self conscious about asking questions or maybe saying something dumb in class or to a professor
thats how you actually learn shit, by working through your idiotic first impressions of the material

Oh please. This isn't how a smart person who's ignorant of political theory would respond to rawls after reading him for the first time.
