To the Editor:
Regarding your editorial ("Reassessing Recruitment," Jan. 6), here is another way of looking at the admissions of recruited of student-athletes:
Since the admissions process is highly subjective at Dartmouth as it is at the other Ivy institutions, Stanford University, Duke University, Northwestern University, etc. that means the recruited student-athletes are the only ones admitted to Dartmouth who are required to achieve a specific academic record (grade point average and test scores) in high school.
These young men and women are highly qualified for admission. The Academic Index requires that they be. The Dartmouth community should be proud of all the students who are admitted to the College. They have earned it.
