The New Duke?

<p>I’m currently a high school senior and submitted my ED application for Duke just last week. Upon reading this article, I am starting to question my decision. Of course the number one reason I chose Duke was because of the academics, but the combination of academics and the athletics and social life was what made me decide to apply here as opposed to other comparable schools. The administration should be ashamed in themselves in what seems to be a deliberate attempt to make Duke “less fun.” However, the social and athletic scene will always be a part of Duke and it won’t disappear overnight. I’m just hoping it can last until 2017.</p>
