Is this "hook" worth mentioning and if so, how do we do it?

Many schools, especially the more selective ones, have a separate supplement to the Common App that you need to fill out. It’s where they ask things like “Why us?” or “How did you hear about us?” That’s where I’d put this kind of thing. Try to put it in the context of what you like about the school and why it’s a good fit.
