the Sam Jackson College Experience

It’s still pretty boring–check if you don’t believe me! My edits mainly consisted of changing ‘Exeter’ to ‘Yale.’ I also changed the tagline from ‘all the exciting parts, none of the rejection’ to ‘all the exciting parts, none of the heavy debt burden.’ It would be funnier were it not for all that debt! These cosmetic changes do make me think a little about the focus of this blog now; everyone would always ask me, ‘are you going to keep blogging when you get to Yale?’ and my answer was always ‘yes, of course.’

I like writing for prospective students etc. because I feel I can be a helpful resource for them, and I also like writing for my more professional audience because I like to imagine that some people listen to what I say and use my recommendations to make the admissions experience, or whatever I might be writing about, a little bit better. That split audience has always been a little tricky sometimes, but I see no reason to quit now. It would of course be easier to chart the direction of my blog (life?) if only I had some more reader participation, which is why I encourage you all to comment, comment, comment. Seriously, it’s painless.
