<p>This is really interesting as just yesterday my DD got a big envelope from Tufts, indicating that her guidance counselor had nominated her for a “Balfour-Chenault” scholarship (for URMs). The envelope included a fee waiver, an application, and a brochure. I don’t want to sound reactionary, but given all that I have read in this thread I am inclined to tell her about the poem, especially given that she wants to major in English and become a journalist. Obviously, she will make up her own mind about applying (she heard from her one SCEA school today), but this sounds like something that she needs to be aware of.</p>
