He has moved in a different direction since he discovered he loves statistics. His preferred concentration at Brown is Public Policy & American Institutions within the Taubman Center. His essay about that major was pretty easy for him to write. He's beyond excited that they do their own public opinion polling. He's now combining his love of politics, statistics and psychology. One of his Common App essays is about how he explores the world through finding out how other people see it. It is the essay that is most "him" when I read it.

The difficulty with "Why Brown?" is that there is so much he loves about the school, he can't get it all in to 200 words without genericizing it. He has narrowed his focus to three basic traits and was able to get more specific about those traits, comparing them to his personality.

AGDee, you're doing such a great job with this process and your kids. I have a few years yet, but you're definitely schooling me on how it's done.

So, "Because it's Brown", doesn't suffice?
