[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academics always love to hear that a young student is willing to pay lots of money to keep their unprofitable scholarship humming along. Sure, it might be a hook given that he's a male interested in the humanities. [/quote] There are plenty of males interested in humanities applying to top schools - it's not a hook. This describes one of our kids. But this very specific deep dive could help given Duke's connection. Especially if the applicant has won awards from places the department would recognize as being special.[/quote] Yea, being a guy interested in humanities is not going to be a hook. [/quote]
