<p>Wow, that's quite a shock. Still, he seems like a very qualified guy. We'll just have to wait and see.</p>

<p>yeeeeeaaaahhhhhh. this is so great. that guy is so hilarious and he really attracted me to Yale during admit weekend. Now hes coming to Stanford with me!!!!</p>

<p>When he lost you, he realized that Yale couldn't cut it anymore, and decided to bail out while he could!</p>

<p>Mamlet was pretty good too.</p>

<p>.. ..</p>

<p>I was reading the article -- the guy's been a director of admissions EVERYWHERE. How d'you even get a job like that? What kind of training do you need? ... I dunno, it just seemed like a kinda funny life direction.</p>

<p>lol thanks Byerly</p>

<p>He probably got sick of being mugged in New Haven. no offense, Yalies :D</p>

<p>Most of the admissions officers I have met have been incredibly articulate, wonderful people. I was blown away by the Harvard Senior Admissions Officer, and my schools has two-ex Santa Clara University officers working for them, and they're just awesome.</p>

<p>Richard Shaw did a terrific job at Yale. Stanford did very well to get him.</p>

<p>i remember Shaw made every attempt to put down harvard. that bothered me and really hurt my interest in the school. But now that I'm a die hard stanford '09er I really hope he has as many jokes for Cal</p>

<p>As someone I know cracked, he's getting a "promotion." </p>

<p>lol haha</p>

<p>Now he has to deal with all nuts from CA.</p>

<p>"Shaw will be returning to the west with his wife Delphine Red Shirt"</p>

<p>What an odd name. Anyway, who would opt for Connecticut weather over california weather, even if it is nor cal weather and you have to work for Stanford?</p>
