The Duke Chronicle has an interesting series this week examining the university's admissions process, which is in danger of being overwhelmed.

In the first installment, the paper examines the growth in applications to Duke and the ramifications for the system intended to give each applicant a thorough examination.

Part 2 looks at all the different things admissions officials weigh in determining whether a student gets in or not.

Part 3 looks at the demographics of a class of Duke students with the headline "Duke Draws 'Rich Kids of all Colors.' "
