<p>Good morning all and congrats Hyps… I was on the CU site and it states that the letter decisions will be mailed out by the first…hmmm… Nothing bout calls, when I think about letters I think about rejections. Either way I’m indifferent at this point. It will be great to get in but at this point I’m considering my other options.</p>
<p>Morning All 
</p>
<p>Congrats rwsaaswr!!! hoo-ha hoooray! another cheer for one of our forumers! , don’t forget to share the stats! 
</p>
<p>@HYPSMCo - thanks for the words :D! I feel all warm and fuzzy now </p>
<p>…as for me, no rejection letter so far, a new day is here and hopefully today more acceptances will be issued… (good luck to all! )</p>
<p>So silent in the forum, our energetic wave of hope must have sieved through the mesh of doubt :o</p>
<p>4:24:12 hrs left , and counting … still some hope left… (holding on tightly* :))</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone today.</p>
<p>@Invic: yeah everyone seems to have quieted down. I haven’t been on in awhile either, Storybook and finals have been taking most of my time</p>
<p>Congrats rwsaaswr!!!</p>
<p>Storybook is painfully quiet, too. Everybody registered and then went silent.</p>
<p>hmmm the silence of limbo! Oh GS, invoke this poor soul into the other side ! :D</p>
<p>Well, at least we broke the ice talking about how quiet it is, lol! </p>
<p>It is finals and a good % of our forumers have been accepted too
AND its Wednesday, the stationary point of the week. – that may all contribute to our somber mood :o</p>
<p>Well, let’s bring some sizzle…(singing*) Its Hump, hump, humpity – hump day! </p>
<p>Some more GS-JEOPARDY
-how many former & current (that was a hint…lol) US Presidents have attended CU?</p>
<p>tick tock tick tock…lol</p>
<p>I too noticed on the CU website that on May 1st decision letters will be mailed out. However, I am wondering if all the letters are rejections, or if its possible there are acceptance letters among them. Would someone please call and find out! Please!</p>
<p>Presidents that have attended CU? I don’t actually know this off of the top of my head. But, Alexander Hamilton attended, but dropped out, of King’s College - if that counts and, I think according to the university, it does. There’s Obama of course. </p>
<p>That’s it, I think. If you want to expand the criteria to include having held office at the university, you can count Dwight Eisenhower, who was president of the university (though mostly in absentia).</p>
<p>Can someone please call the GS office and find out if they are mailing EA acceptance decisions on May 1st.</p>
<p>@hellojan</p>
<p>Wait, I thought Alexander Hamilton was Secretary of Treasury.</p>
<p>I know the two Roosevelts attended.
And of course, Barack Obama.</p>
<p>So three.</p>
<p>I have a jeopardy question: what animal is hidden on our lady Alma Mater? (hint: it’s relative lives in the GS lounge)</p>
<p>Owl?</p>
<p>Sent from my DROIDX using CC App</p>
<p>Bingo! You’ve done your homework. You’ll fit right in at Columbia!</p>
<p>Oh my goodness, you’re right about Hamilton! </p>
<p>I’m guessing the Roosevelts attended a graduate school?</p>
<p>Theodore and Franklin big went to CU Law School.</p>
<p>Both Theodore and Franklin went to CU Law School.</p>
<p>Did anyone get any acceptance calls today?</p>
<p>Fun Teddy Roosevelt facts:</p>
<p>Butler Library has a first edition set of his multi-volume hunting diary collection. If you ever have occasion to visit it, I recommend you do. A lot of it is Roosevelt meditating on sport, integrity, and manliness.</p>
<p>A moosehead, that belonged to a moose hunted by Roosevelt, was gifted from the Harvard chapter of Alpha Delta Phi to the Columbia chapter. It’s since been stolen and returned a few times without explanation (probably rival frats going scavenger hunting).</p>
<p>I’m backkk!!..lol - just got to school.
GS-Jeopardy - yup you mentioned them all
It was great reading your responses !</p>
<p>moosehead hunt! that’s interesting…when was the last time that mr.moose when missing. I wonder if that still happens, hmm? </p>
<p>…well there’s 1/2 hr left before the open window for calls close for the day. Perhaps tomorrow will bring a better outcome :D</p>
