Nice job, Andrew. I'm with Lisa Micele, Kassie Patton, and (to some extent) Emily Kamm. Uni students are great, and 15 is fine with me. I qualify my agreement with Emily because her last sentence about the school focusing "so narrowly on perfection and national recognition" doesn't fit, I believe, with the curricular philosophy expressed by the faculty and many students. Perfection and national recognition aren't part of the school's mission statement, and I don't believe they should be. I believe we set out to be a school that nurtures and educates bright students, and the number of jewels in our National Merit crown is not in any way a measure of our success. We're proud of the 15 seniors who earned the coveted "semifinalist" title, but we're also proud, in so many ways, of the remaining 45 who didn't.
