<p>"The dumbest rich students go to college at exactly the same rate as the poorest bright students." </p>

<p>That's a sad but true reflection of United States education policy.</p>

<p>Thanks so much for posting that! Gotta admit -- Fitz isn't known for biting his tongue.</p>

<p>I saw him last night, and he was in a very good mood in light of the way things turned out this year. Today they start out on the traditional whirlwind 70-city tour to start wooing the Class of 2010!</p>

<p>Byerly, do u know by any chance if and when they will be making their international tour?</p>

<p>No, I don't know the schedule for that. You could e-mail the Admissions Office and inquire.</p>

<p>Sorry to bother Byerly, is there a list of amission officers' email addresses? I know this one lady, I met her last year and would like to email her... is there any way I can find her address?</p>

<p>What's her name? (Send me a PM if you want, and I'll look it up)</p>

<p>They do international tours over the summer.</p>

<p>crimson4me, best check directly with the admissions office. I am an international alum interviewer and in my region, the adcom visits in early autumn.</p>
