| Disagree with Pig (who is a serial pessimist on this site). SAT scores are critical, unless they are equal, and location is not. Students love bubbles, and love to hang with other students. The whole go into Boston thing is way overblown. Students at BC, for example, very rarely go off campus. And these kids will have the rest of their lives to hang out it cities. Every single person I have ever met from Bucknell was totally in love with the school. It is happy and beloved. And all of these schools party, it's just that the bubble school students party together, which is a nice, safe thing for them. Whistle's kids decided not to go, which he needs to come to terms with. |
