Our society values athletic prowess and physical attractiveness more than academic achievements or intellectual acumen, so the geeky people get piled on along with the fat kids and everyone else who doesn't fit in or look the part.

I also think the middle of the road kids want to get their shots in early because they know they'll end up working for geeks throughout the rest of their lives.
