The last sentence in the article made me chuckle a bit.

Rejected from Duke so she will be attending chicken university. What does that say about her grades and SAT scores. Could probably only get into chicken u.

Too attractive to be admitted?

She probably would have been the only cute girl on campus.

I watched the 30 for 30 "I still hate Christian Laettner" last weekend, and when they were talking about how popular he was with the ladies, could help but notice how butt-ugly the coeds were they had on old video crowding around him after games.

My initial thought, exactly. Can't recall if the article, or her letter, indicated where she's from, but I have to wonder if she's made an informed decision on the educational opportunities available in the state of SC. Her letter (although the language and structure could use a little help) and the thought process that generated it indicates a promising intelligence. Providing her grades meet the bill, (and having applied to Duke I can't imagine they wouldn't), CU should offer an unsolicited acceptance just for publicity's sake. Of course, that would open another whole can of worms. But the USuC, really? Someone needs to tell this young lady....

LOL....upon learning her option, my message to Siobhan:

"Sorry you couldn't get into a good school!".....

admitted anywhere else. It's an international safety net for those not otherwise qualified to go to college.

Maybe she was rejected for not using proper grammar?

Read the first sentence in her letter to Duke.
