Fantastic! I'm definitely checking this out. I've been jonesing for some art history and European history courses!! Hope they're available

The US Army paid for most of my undergrad, so while there is still some expense it didn't cost as much to me as staying in-state in AZ.

Do I have to disclose my SAT score?

I went to Duke for free. My dad paid me to get out of the house...

Ooh, who wants to take this with me? Conveniently, it starts up at the end of the basketball season. Dan Ariely is a very interesting author, I bet his course is pretty fascinating (if you're in to that sort of thing.)

Maybe this would be a better starter course (though not Duke-based):

I would love to, but it depends on State. If I get into State, I'll be pretty busy taking a class in the Spring. While I'd love to take this class with Dan Ariely, I hope I'm taking a class at State.

I can't think that far ahead, but this looks to be right up my alley. I know it will come as a shock, but people who work in the courthouse in the Varnish Zone see and deal with irrational behavior every once in a while.
