CLASS stands for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School. Who thought up the acronym? It sounds like something you win for surviving an inner-city high school without getting shot or incarcerated. Sadly, Lowe's believes one Duke player is qualified this year, maybe because he knows to spell zipper with two P's. Also one from Harvard and (no complaints here) from Brown, but none from Princeton. The 20 candidates are cut to 10 finalists at midseason. If I read this correctly, only Cornell has two nominees.
