So, I understood when Duke rejected my oldest S, his resume wasn’t quite there and I’d guess his teacher recommendations were solid but not spectacular. But now they’ve rejected my D who has a much stronger profile that definitely fits their stats and is just like the world’s greatest kid. And THEN they have the nerve to call the next day about alumni donations. It was a REALLY good thing I was on a business trip and wasn’t home to get the call. Planning on using that lovely phone number of the person who is the liaison between the alumni office and the admissions office in the near future. Quick, guess what I’m going to say.
