But what about honesty?

Keeping one's feelings to themself is not lying.  That may seem to be a "lawyerly" distinction, but it's an important one.  Ever heard the expression, "discretion is often the greater part of valor?"

But what about the sanctity of the senior eval process?

What about it?  I was brutally honest with everyone there, just like they expected us to be, just like I always am.

Love to continue to this conversation later, but I've got to get to work now.  Everyone have a nice day! :wave:

"You are wrong...



The way you could have displayed character, is by saying that you didn't agree with what was going on at Hyde and refused to play the game.



What you did instead was conform to what you were supposed to do and then you walked away with a piece of paper that said you were truly living your life (at that moment) with standards of excellence.  Which you were not because you were not sharing how you really felt, and just took the paper and ran.

I would respect you a lot more if you had said "this place sucks, I don't want your stupid paper, just give me my transcripts...I'm outta here!" That would have been the character thing to do.



What you did was make the Hyde diploma mean less than is should. At least those in 1990.



Instead of pulling the lawyer thing and immediately rebutting, just sit back and try to hear what I'm saying."


I would like to insert a comment from an outsider.  I've been reading this exchange as part of my effort to learn about Hyde and what it has to offer kids.  I must say that if this way of communicating (not Lars, but you) is typical of what happens at Hyde, I would never consider sending my child there.  You seem to be communicating in a very aggressive way and I don't want my child in an environment where that's what's typical. Healthy feedback is one thing; this kind of "in your face" communication belongs in prisons and the miliatary, if anywhere.  Is this typical Hyde?

 Now that I've read many of the postings on this website, it's becoming clearer and clearer to me that Hyde is probably a very unhealthy environment.  You've actually helped inform me.

I didn't write any of those little comments before your post...I don't think you can really understand the point I was making to Lars...because you don't understand what it means to receive a "Hyde" diploma.  Also Lars can't understand that even though he was brutally honest with his classmates, he wasn't about himself.

And...I don't see anywhere in my posts that I was condescending, rude or mean...I was just asking a question and replying to Larry's comments in a mature way.

See the condescending attitude here?  If you don't preach the gospel, you're not being honest with yourself.  Just sickening.

By the way my contact information is in the alumni directory.

Yea you are right,Ed, I'm sorry, I am going to go back on self study and write about what made me say those things and do some self reflecting.  I will then look you up in the directory and try to imagine myself turning out as well as you have.  I just hope I can harden to the point where I can say "Get a life !! Punk!! just like Clint Eastwood.  Only I think I will follow it up with "Do you feel lucky" (to have graduated from Hyde), "Well do you punk!!!"  Wow I do feel good, and I feel superior to everyone else who has logged on,  I will not only post my name, but also a picture of my whole family, that will show everyone that I am more open then they are.

Thanks Ed

ANON


I'm confused. I thought Who was a program parents. Did he go to Hyde?

Good question.  He sent his daughter to ASR and staunchly defends that decision.  As to his connection to Hyde, that is still a mystery.

TheWho originally posted that comment as a "Guest," hence the "ANON" signature within the text.  At some point he was found to be borderline flooding the threads elsewhere on fornits and agreed to have previously anon posts linked to his IP address attributed to his username, hence the non-Anon attribution (i.e., TheWho identification) as to the poster of that little missive.
