LINK Harvard student newspaper editorial board says word limit in applications hurts people of 'marginalized' backgrounds
"Harvard’s restructuring of its supplemental essay questions amid the post-affirmative action turmoil also gives us an opportunity to reevaluate the role of ‘trauma dumping’ in the application process," the board wrote. "Despite the negative connotations of this term, we feel that oversharing past hardships can be appropriate in college admissions essays considering that evaluators are seeking to understand the sum total of applicants’ experiences and how they’ve excelled despite personal circumstances."
While the newspaper’s board argued that "those who have undergone traumatic experiences should not have to fear that writing about the experiences that shaped them looks like a beg for admission," it suggested that the college admissions process should be trusted to discern between those who merely provide a "litany" of past traumas versus those who share stories of how they overcame them.
"Trauma dumping"! What a shameful way to try to get into college, and these bleedinghearts support it.
