What kind of person should not attend Stanford University?

Amaya

A lazy, conservative, close-minded person who doesn't take school or the world outside of their own seriously

Raillan

People who are interested in nourishing the life of the mind won't like Stanford very much. It's an academic school, but most of the academics seem targeted towards career placement or some other utilitarian goal. Learning for the sake of learning is pretty rare.

Sharon

Someone who is not academically focused and wants to only party at college should not attend Stanford.

Dominique

One who won't take advantage of the opportunites and will take his/her education for granted.

Neel

Pretty much anybody will fit in. However, if you dont like freedom or being social, probably not the place for you.

Zinnia

Negative, self-centered (in relation to academics)

Adam

Boring people.

Margaret

someone really into prestigious traditions/prestige in general - Stanford's all about pretending it's not prestigious ivy.

Lauren

I think every kind of person should attend this school-- the more diverse, the better!
