TIP

From the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki

TIP is Duke University's Talent Identification Program. Middle schoolers from across the country are selected to take the SAT/ACT, and according to their scores they are invited to attend a summer studies class.

But really, TIP is much more than that. TIP is where you learn lessons you'll actually use, where you be who you want to be without worrying about what other people think, where you meet friends that you'll have for a lifetime. TIPsters understand each other, and friendships formed at TIP transcend the superficiality of most relationships and become the strongest bonds in the world. Not only are they the closest friendships a person can make, but the people you meet at TIP will probably be the future leaders of the free world. A wise TIPster once called the Fortune 500 List "the TIP yearbook."

TIPsters are extraordinarily good at keeping in touch, keeping MySpaces, Xangas and Livejournals to inform one another of their antics as well as sending mass emails that actually have subjects.

TIP is where you learn to say "I love you" and really mean it. There is no place on earth like it, and it should be at least 49 weeks longer.

Basically... Well, TiP is Magic.
