slightlyconfused1 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 New: Institution: Duke Program: Econ PhD Decision: Accepted Funding: details in the mail Notification date: 02/22 Notified through: email from graduate school saying to check site Posted on Gradcafe: (yes or no) no Comments: This is random, but they included my applyyourself password in the notification email, which both (1) is incredibly stupid and (2) means that the ApplyYourself system does not hash passwords, which is an almost unfathomable level of incompetence. They clearly have no idea how to deal with sensitive data... Copied from TM (god that site being down freaked me out!)
