PA, personally I'd rather see a well round kid from a HA than a super book smart kid only when I am hiring.  I don't care if they are from clubs, ultimate, or sports.  The point is the same.  HAs know that today's hiring managers want more well rounded kids.  

A cousin of mine graduated PBK from (as she calls it) one of the more prestigious Ivies. Her brother, his wife and my daughter each graduated from one of those “less prestigious” Ivies. She’s incredibly book smart. But she couldn’t find her way of a paper bag if pointed towards the daylight. She’s also the least successful professionally of all of us.
