The origins of the Yale admissions video: Mean Gays

“Wait, you’ve never been to a gay ivy before?  Shut up.  Shut up!  Shut up!“

Before I knew where I was applying to college I met Mark Dunn, the current Yale admissions officer who was the brains behind the Yale admissions video That’s why I chose Yale.  Mark Dunn was an RA at my dorky Georgia academic summer camp (Governor’s Honors Program or “Go Home Pregnant”).  Mark was a student at Yale at the time known around the camp as “Hot Yale Guy” (he was in 50 most!) .  A few of my friends became part of the Mark Dunn fan crew and found this video featuring Mark Dunn playing himself.  I watched the video over and over and knew Yale was the school for me.  Yale was a school full of hot guys, and even though they were mostly gay half of them would be BFF material and the other half would be closet cases that still hook up with women.  Welcome to paradise.
