Sorry for the downtime (?)
Sorry about the downtime today--or did no one notice? I have no idea what caused it to happen, but an important WordPress file disappeared off the server entirely and so nothing was working properly until I discovered what was missing and solved it. Really, really strange since I wasn't FTPing anywhere near there and it only happened an hour after I had last SSH'd in.
Seymour Hersh is coming to give a nice talk and take questions this evening, P.E.A. paid a good deal of money for him to come. Not sure what exactly he's talking about, maybe Iran? It wasn't made very clear. Should be interesting.
I'm currently a rising senior at Yale University and I've been blogging about college admissions and higher education marketing trends since I began my college application process in 2005. I now also write about my experience here at Yale.

Hi Sam! I love your blog. I'm an independent admissions counselor in Texas - I help students just like you through this whole messy process. Your blog is hysterical, and it's a great reminder to those of us who used to work (and may still) in college admissions offices just how much of a bureaucratic mess it all can be for students. Good for you for getting the word out - and for being persistent and hard working. Good luck!
