Undergraduate / Brown Suppliment, my mom [3]
Please tell us more about your interest in Brown: Why does Brown appeal to you as a college option? Who or what has influenced your decision to apply?
As soon as I stepped into the admissions office at Brown University, my Mom handed me the most recent issue of the student-published Brown Jug. Before my information session had even begun I had perused and often laughed out loud at most of its contents. And by the time the tour came around, I had already finished it and had set my mind on being a part of it. Since I was a kid I have been reading political satire, such as The Onion, and I have always dreamed of one day creating political and social satire for people to enjoy. Not only did The Brown Jug show me that by going to Brown I would be able to be a part of that humor I love, but it also gave me a glimpse into the typical Brown persona. It showed me that the typical Bruonian isn't just a hard working student set on graduation and getting a good job; these are people who love to apply their wit and brainpower to create something intellectual and funny. Most of all, a look through The Brown Jug showed me, on a smaller scale, what the experience at Brown University would be like. It showed me that creative, fun-loving people lie at the heart of the school. It showed me that I could let my creativity in writing flow through this magazine or whatever other means I desire. But most of all, a read through The Brown Jug inspired me to apply to this amazing University and go at it with everything I've got.
I need to cut this down to 1000 Characters from 1,381. Any Suggestions?
