Re: Wisconsin Recruiting Vol. IV - It's all coming together
from the Monsignor over at Buckyville....
"I complained about this (Ranta situation) to a good friend of mine who is an Assistant Dean in L&S. She is not in admissions, but she is familiar with the standards. She was a little skeptical. She said that if the guy can speak English, the only way he could have failed the UW standard on the TOEFL was if he essentially could not read English at all. She speculates, without having any knowledge, that something else is involved here.
She has worked with athletes to keep them eligible (even got some kudos from CPC on one of the football players she helped) so she knows what is going on. She also was not surprised that a student who could not get into UW immediately got admitted at Minnesota, especially a hockey player."
