Ivy League Overload
The Week, Student Accepted to All 8 Ivy League Schools Picks Yale:
Kwasi Enin had a difficult choice to make: The high school senior was accepted to all eight of the Ivies, in addition to several other colleges, and with graduation right around the corner, it was time to make a decision. After weighing the pros and cons of each university (and, wisely, waiting to hear about financial aid packages), he's made his selection: Enin is headed to Yale.
Inside Higher Ed, A One-Man Completion Agenda:
Completing a journey spanning more than half a century, Peyton (Perry) Potetick today received his master’s degree in education from Harvard University, making him the first person to earn a degree from each of the eight Ivy League schools:
B.A. Princeton
M.B.A. Pennsylvania (Wharton)
J.D. Yale
M.A. (Journalism) Columbia
M.A. (Liberal Studies) Dartmouth
M.F.A. Cornell
M.A. (American Studies) Brown
M.A. (Education) Harvard

Professor Caron,
You know that Inside Higher Ed piece was a satire, right?
