I'm off to MIT for a PhD in Computational Biology next year. Hopefully will be playing quizbowl with the MIT team unless coursework becomes too much.

Re: North Carolina 2012-2013
Would anyone be interested in a Duke Fall tournament on the 10th of November. I know there are tournaments at Dorman and Roanoake, but we're hopeful we can attract enough attendees to justify that date.
