Reply to ""For Sale: SAT-Takers’ Names...""

My oldest (non-baseball) son, after his strong test scores, received at least one piece of snail mail a week from Vanderbilt, as well as dozens of emails, for almost a year.  He did apply, and was deferred.  That was not surprising, but the amount of mail was ridiculous; you would think that they would have something else to do with all that paper.  

Presumably the analogy is baseball showcases and tournaments that sell contact info, so that kids can get a million camp invites and think they are being recruited. 

The moral is, as soon as you give out your email address, someone is going to try to sell you something.
