<p>That very well may be jazzymom. That would be a bitter pill for DadII to have to explain to brother.</p>
<p>I find it rather curious that, for someone with a need for merit aid, that no other public universities were put on the list–particularly for one living in the middle of the Big Ten schools. I think, in a semi-lucid moment, the in-state flagship was added as a financial safety (perhaps at the urging of a GC or boss) with the thought that D could not possibly end up there. Now, as the once unthinkable seems increasingly likely–DII even posted on the Ohio State thread once that it was D’s second favorite on her list–DII is pulling out all the stops to ensure that what he views as a horrible mistake (allowing her to apply to even one public) doesn’t end up costing him face with brother.</p>
