Thanks to the reader who corrected my embarrassing typo. The dog ate my spellcheck.

Now, on to the admissions news.  Since this is not "our" year, we only know a handful of kids who have applied early decision or action.  So far, we have heard about one very-qualified girl who was accepted at Columbia.  No surprise, though, because is a varsity volleyball star, heads up an award-winning yearbook, has high test scores and supposedly wrote a killer essay.  Plus she is a very cool human being….and a multi-generational triple legacy.

Waiting to hear the results of several other kids who have applied early to BU, Duke, Georgetown, Kenyon, Michigan, Northwestern, NYU, Skidmore, Stanford, Vanderbilt, Yale and WashU(2).  This warrants some serious snooping on Facebook.  Will report back.
