Being a catcher isn’t glamorous, despite calling the pitch type and location, hitting in the lineup and making defensive plays. It could be said that Ruiz is a catcher’s catcher, the epitome of success without fame.
Princeton's decision to bring back early admissions will make it harder to attract qualified poor and minority students and sends a message that the University is not willing to sacrifice yield to combat the "frenzy, complexity and inequity" of the college admissions process.
As I set foot on the brick pavement of Oxfordshire and witnessed the jaw-dropping and time-transcending architecture, the unique Oxford education started to unfold.
