<p>So does today's (May 10) Doonesbury comic strip imply that Alex has finally made her decision and is going to Cornell?</p>

<p>yeah, and probably not MIT...check out the strip from May 4th in relation to today's!</p>

<p>My coworkers stopped by to tell me that Alex will be my son's classmate.....goes to show you how great Cornell is. I wonder if Alex got any financial aid ;-></p>

<p>yeaa.. my friend here is dating tredeau's son, so alex is going to cornell because of her.</p>

<p>This may also have something to do with it:</p>

<p>FWIW, Trudeau is a Yale alum. His strip - originally titled Bull Tales - was first published in the Yale Daily News when he was a student. B.D. is modeled after Yale quarterback Brian Dowling.</p>

<p>what'sthe big deal, she isn't a big famous celeb</p>

<p>One of the previous doonesbury characters went through college (I forget which one) in the same class as my cousin and he says they put the character's name on the graduation program.</p>

<p>Saturday's strip suggests that she might defer for a year, just like I am. Cornell 2011.</p>

15

<p>shouldn't she have made her decision already, the deadline was May1st right?</p>

16

<p>today she said she's going to cal tech because cornell is too rural.</p>

17

<p>It sounds like perhaps she was being sarcastic...I hope lol</p>

18

<p>But Cal tech isn't in a big city.</p>

19

<p>But Pasedena is larger than Ithaca</p>
