This is a general common app question (I’ve posted it there too), but since UVA is DS’s dream school, I’m hoping Dean J will pipe in. DS has written The Big Essay on another paper he wrote several years ago. He quotes the original paper several times, one of which includes his name. All of a sudden it occurred to me that I think I’ve heard admissions committees are not supposed to know whose application their reviewing. True? Does he have to delete his name?
