<p>Heh, that is cool.</p>
<p>I would say that I have had a very good response from faculty. Both Professor Blake and Professor Rasiel were very fast in responding to my inquiries about summer classes, as was the Pre-Major Advising Dean Milton Blackmon. My roommate for next year has a great pre-major advisor... he emailed his advisor at the end of last semester because he was afraid that he might fail a class, and he wanted to know what to do if that were the case; his advisor emailed him back within minutes and told him that he would be picking him up in like 20 minutes to take him to dinner to talk about it. I thought that was pretty cool. (my roommate ended up being fine).</p>
<p>The only professor that I have had a difficult time getting in contact with has been Robert Cook-Deegan. I have been trying to get in contact with the Institute for Genome Sciences and Policy because I'm really interested in combining my prospective Biology and Public Policy majors into something that centers around Genome ethics and policy, and I wanted to ask about the types of jobs available for graduates and if there were a higher education for me to seek (grad school, law school, etc), and also if there were a lab I could work with or do some type of internship with. Still, it doesn't surprise me that it would take a while to get a response... Dr. Cook-Deegan is part of like 20,000 programs at Duke. See, if only I had gotten into the Genome Revolution FOCUS...</p>
