  First of all, I’ve played golf with you Thom and he needs all the Bagger Vance channeling he can pull off. Second, I think Malkovich has had a very nice career post Con Air including his amazing performance as Osbournce Cox in “Burn After Reading.”

  He’s right on the main point.

  I’m very insulted that you are denying the greatness of John Malkovich. Burn After Reading. Art School Confidential. And, of course, Being John Malkovich. How can you deny joy from these awesome, quirky movies?

  …Ok, I’m clicking the red X now.

  I contend that your thespian cred evaporates at the exact nanosecond that the line “Make a move and the bunny gets it” parses your lips.

  Hey, I know this probably alludes to my paranoia about all things college related, but just a quick question for you (if you’re allowed to even release these numbers, that is). How many students were actually rescinded last year? My grades have slipped, but not significantly in the slightest (just a few low Bs in the hardest courses at my high school). My brother attends UMichigan, and they rescinded 5 out 5000+ students last year, so I was just curious as to how many were rescinded here last year after being offered admission. Thanks! By the way, Burn After Reading was amazing.

  Hey Cornelius,

  The actual number of rescinded offers is typically very low. We will send out a handful (like 3 to 10) of letters that warn students that we have noticed their grades have diminished and that we strongly encourage those grades to improve. We have rescinded offers before, but it is very rare to be honest with you. We typcially won’t get worked up over B’s, but C’s and D’s might make us get a little cranky.
