As Ms. Kronenberg said on Sunday at the brunch, we all believe in ILC students and have invested the energy and money in you to prove it. You're amazing in your own right, and you need to believe that at all levels of your being.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08174215323402368163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596772254742775640.post-29200225260846706712012-07-08T21:36:56.380-07:002012-07-08T21:36:56.380-07:00Thank you Don.

But because you maintained your honesty, they treated you with disrespect and failed to honor their agreement for a tour.<br /><br />I suppose they’re used to dealing with people who don’t know the difference between right and wrong but I’m proud of our ILCers.<br /><br />I’m also proud that they saw Harvard for what it is in the real world as opposed to the myth the world believes about it.<br /><br />With 3600 universities in the US, what’s important is to find the ‘perfect fit’. I think that after today that list has been narrowed by one.Don Gosneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17110247579694408858noreply@blogger.com
