Duke's "Personality Record" in 1968 admission file
Description:
The admissions process has changed significantly in the last 100 years, but it has always been rigorous. In this 1968 file, the principal of an applicant's school would be asked to collect “personality” information on a student to be included in their application. Today, Duke's admissions application is much more standardized across peer institutions through a virtual format.
