Sure, some high schools don't have the resources to provide extra attention to help disabled students, but I think that most girls rushing at Ole Miss come from a different background than that. A 2.5 gpa is very low for high school. Many of you keep talking about how students should receive benefits and extra test time in college, and you make it seem like you don't realize that these students would have gotten the extra help in high school.

Yes.
Extended test time, etc. was there in high school. Which is why it is there in college (the one I went to anyway).
But now I have another question: why in the world would anyone base anything in college (beyond admission to the college/university/program/magjor/whatever) base anything on something from high school?
