wecandoit92, as a parent of a current sophomore, I can say that my S and his friends have matured quite a lot in 2 years. He purposely picked Jewett freshman year because it was the “social dorm”, and I must say he very likely sowed a lot of wild oats, but by the end of the year he was seeing all those carefree antics with a more jaundiced eye. He has now picked a major, broadened his circle of friends, gotten his butt kicked by Calculus II, and has gotten much more focused. I do believe that going back as a junior would be a very different experience, those freshmen you knew have grown up quite a bit.

Hopefully, you’ll get some more concrete suggestions from current Whitties. I really admire you for taking another look and being willing to explore new approaches. If I get any brain storms, I’ll PM you. best wishes.
