Stanford’s envelope contained a piece of cow lung

Stanford was nominated for cruelest rejection. Rutgers got a mention for “best acceptance” because its letter came in a “really expensive-looking black folder.”

Some stupid NYT article on college admissions.

      I was impressed by an acceptance letter from USC (as in Trojans, not ‘Cocks). The folder came in an envelope. When you pulled it out, you’d see the back side, which was blank and jet black. Then when you flipped it over, there was a big Art Deco picture of campus with “YOU’RE IN” in big letters. Should have been accompanied by fanfare.

      Put my law school acceptance letters to shame…
