I’d DYE to be a Yalie

A Dartmouth classmate send me a link to this video, developed by some of the creative minds of the Jack O’Lantern at Dartmouth.  Dr. Seuss got his start at the Jacko.

It’s some good admissions-related humor for a busy Friday afternoon.  Hope you enjoy.

The Real Secret of College Admission

David L. Marcus volunteers to interview applicants for his alma mater, Brown University. Last month, he wrote an article for U.S. News and World Report titled, “The Real Secret of College Admissions.” In his article, Marcus writes about some of the difficult truths of the college admission process.  He talks about how the process can sometimes be “irrational” and how a rejection letter can be a “blessing in disguise”.    I think Marcus’ piece is insightful and offers an interesting perspective on what can be a difficult process.
