Joe High School will become, like his older brother, a Gopher. The University of Minnesota, accepting him before Christmas, is his destination next fall. His other picks were either too much of a stretch (ie, he didn't get in), or a fleeting fancy (ie, he couldn't remember why he applied). The U of M, being right down the street and a place where he has already taken classes and worked, makes sense. However, I do wish he had had more real choices. Staying at home, even if you live in a dorm, can make you feel as if there's not much urgency to the matter. We'll see how it goes.
