Certainly, no one should be set up for failure. You're correct, it's a waste of resources and the loss of a chance for someone else. However, what I'm taking issue with is Dean Jones' statement: "If you need a lot of pharmaceutical support to get through the day, you're not a good match for a place like MIT." Hopefully the school has something more nuanced in mind, but I'm working with her words here, which I think pretty clearly state "don't even think about it if you're on meds, you're not our material." After learning from other LJers about statements she's made in the past explaining female students' performance with "Women have pheromones and things like that", I'm frankly amazed anyone at the university will let her anywhere near a reporter.
