Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 4747308, member: 153"] I said I was against USNWR. Not all. I really have no idea what you're talking about when you say I went after you. I critiqued Vanderbilt for enrolling so many rich kids and complaining about them getting dinged in the rankings for it. I personally don't care about markets or reputations or anything like that. I'd rather learn skills and actually improve. I'm the same way with my kids in sports. All these parents are jumping around trying to leverage which team will give their kid a starting position, which will get them a college scholarship etc., and I just want them learning from someone who can actually teach them, improve their skills, and learn that in life, you can practice things, hone your skills, and improve. There are so many impostors out there and this very basic thing that we used to believe in is really being lost by people taking shortcuts to status. [/QUOTE]
