i truly have no idea why, but duke was my dream school. my college 'search' was practically non-existent, no tour around the country, just a trip to iowa with a friend who had a brother there. but for some reason, i remember dreaming about duke. woulda, coulda, shoulda....this is a cool campus! north carolina's a really pretty state, and the grounds are gorgeous. so are the buildings. so are the kids. well, not gorgeous maybe, but clean-cut, polite and pleasant. they look like they're having a good time there...impressive academics of course, and really up-to-date facilities. AND, the only campus we've visited that has its very own lemur research facility. with lemurs. not sure how you top that. ran into another family from des moines, i went to drake with her, she and her son were looking at schools in the area. what are the odds? anyway....good day, think brady liked it. oh yeah, founded by methodists. maybe it's a sign? our tour guide was very cute, not terribly polished - which was actually refreshing - she struggled to think of things to say at several spots along the tour, but you could tell she was very enthusiastic about her school.
unc next.
