In light of the recent uproar over Tiger Mom, I thank Mr. Albom for his exceedingly wise words on higher education.  For all of you parents whose kids are waiting for those envelopes, thick or thin, and for the rest of us whose kids one day will, I recommend clicking over to this article.  These are wise words to read:  The college that rejects you may do you a favor.

And thanks to my friend, Brad, who was wise enough to send it to my inbox.
