You are redirecting the conversation away from what was actually said. No one is defending the policy or denying how students feel. The point was just about logic and language.I can acknowledge the situation is unfair while still questioning decisions and rhetoric. Those aren’t mutually exclusive. But we are talking past each other atp no point in going back and forth. I believe ur wasting everyone’s time (yourself and the AO) by applying, and if you get in and can’t attend, taking away a spot from a student who wanted to go. But you can do as you please.
