Survey in Norris: Familial Love

Anyone with siblings relatively close in age has given it some thought: After living with your bro or sis for 18 years, could you ever imagine attending the same university? We asked 100 people in Norris whether or not they would suffocate, and an overwhelming 67 percent say they’d actually love extra face time with their siblings. (Some gave the condition that the school must be “a big one.”) Those who would refuse to attend their siblings’ universities were in the minority, but they were much more sure of their decisions. “I’m not letting my sister apply here. I told her to go to Penn State for business school,” one says. But then there’s that small group of NU students who love their siblings, but whose siblings don’t return the favor. “I wanted my sister to come, but she wouldn’t because I’m here!” Maybe you shouldn’t have popped all the heads off her Barbie dolls in fifth grade.
