I like it! He/She is representative of the vast majority of college students. There is so much pressure on young people starting early in high school to make every vacation, free moment count for something. By the end of high school the "top students" are viewed as the ones with perfect grades and a full resume of amazing accomplishments! By the time they graduate college the perceived top students are expected to have completed at minimum a few challenging internships along with showing campus involvement. I dunno, it's all so amped up and there is so much pressure. I am the parent of college aged and recent grad kids. It is so competitive!!

Back to the letter...Yes, I would hire that young person (for an entry level gopher type job--let him get his feet wet)! I bet he would work out just fine.
