How did you find out about this web site?[/quote]
I stumbled across this site last month when I Googled an acquaintance whose name appears in association with it. It wasn't something that I sought out, but something that I sort of met by accident on the path. I left Hyde thirty years ago with a forward look and not with a backward look. College, graduate schools, marriage, immigration, career, family: all these haven't left me much time to mull over the Hyde effect, whether good or ill. From what little I've gathered, it seems there's an inverse ratio between success at Hyde and success in the real world. That's good news for a guy like me who took Hyde with a grain of salt and was branded a failure. I might have carried my burden of failure on into adulthood, and even gone back for a late-life diploma, like tin man, scarecrow, and cowardly lion. Well, it's wonderful to discover Hyde's dissident community! I had no idea I was in such good company!

That's a very good way to put it: Hyde's dissident community. What many of us are discovering is that this group is significant in size. This web site is very healing and therapeutic (MUCH more effective than Hyde's lame, often ineffectual seminars).

Am curious, did you contact this acquaintence? If so, was he/she aware of this board?
I think it is important that when parents investigage Hyde in order to make a decision about sending their kid there, they should have all the facts, not just the materials that Hyde puts out. Hyde spends a lot of money on marketing the school and it definitely does pay off. I believe it is equally as important for parents to hear the voice of the many disatisfied students and parents, which are plentiful.

What was that pop song from about 30 years ago? "Oz never gave nothing to the tinman that he didn't all ready have." Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. It is just Joe. I have been thru the desert on a horse with no name since then, so I can't remember my name.
BTW I just watched Doug Pray's "Hype" on DVD. It is really good.
