There should not be a criteria based on personality that would allow or disallow students to be admitted to a school. The criteria should stay as it is with academics and extra curriculars being most important. Though maybe questions about tollerance of people with differences. This could include sexual orientation, gender identity, physical disabilities, and mental disabilities. The results from this could lower the chances of verbal or even physical abuse on campus.

Someone that should attend UW Oshkosh, is someone who needs to be ready to challenge themselves. That means they'll need to study more than they had in high school, but more importantly realize that they are on their own now. UW Oshkosh isn't like high school, where you had to go to class everyday, the teachers watched over you and there were rules to follow. Then in college everything is up to you, if you need help you have to ask for it, make sure you go to class everyday and never give up on yourself.
