I have read enough comments by the academic elitists that the "Stanford experience"  doesn't include that fluff on the playing fields.  May they always be a crank minority of limited means.

Admissions should weed those people out so they can go where they belong: CalTech or University of Chicago.

...or Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Brown, Columbia, MIT, etc. Y'know, the substantial majority of our chief top-school competitors without D1 athletic programs. ;)

Again, why I love our alma mater. Because we can be #1 at both academics and athletics. Why have to choose?
