It's worse than that. It's not even the mean anymore. It's the
lowest student.
Personally, I believe that the lowest students whould recieve some
of the spotlight. If they don't get attention, they will probably end
up not making a living, etc. and will thus hinder society. We need
to get these people to where they can work. But let's face it: They
won't be rocket scientists, won't win a Field Award or a Nobel
Prize, and won't be regarded as a genus of our time. But they'll be
working.
But I think that more attention should fall on the people who CAN
be rocket scientists, Field/Nobel winners, etc., as they can greatly
improve everyone's life. Too many have already been ruined by
lack of attention.
