"I hear students ask me when I'm going around giving info sessions, 'So, what is your acceptance rate to medical school?' And honestly, I AM happy for them that they are so determined and have such a strong direction to their life, but at the same time, all I want to say to them is I DONT WANT YOU at my school [laughs]. At least for me, the vision I've always had of this school is that people sit around and think simply because they love it... [pauses] I graduated from college and the only thing I knew I wanted to do with my life was read more books."
Call me spoiled. Call me an idealist. Call me out of touch.
This -- reading in the arboretum, student-led everything, classes the same size as they were at PCS, books that challenge me and inform me, and people who believe -- is what I came here to find.
