Last minute change of heart-S decided to accept the Banneker Key scholarship at UMCP.

At the 11th hour the expense (50K/yr) was just too much of a burden for the entire family. Our S is relieved that he’ll graduate without debt and is excited about the Honors Humanities program at MD. We’re all relieved and confident he’ll do well there.

Ultimately, the prestige thing lost its luster the more we imagined the burden of the financial reality of attending Duke. Good luck to all you Dukies. We’ll see you at the Comcast Center.
