Thanks for the info. Hamilton is still on the wish list, but the financial aid offer was less than either Vassar or Colgate which makes it a bit tougher to justify. I visited the campus with my son and he did the tour and info session with his Mom. All three of us liked the campus, the relative lack of core requirements and the emphasis on writing. Son especially enjoyed reading the list of grads. I also work with the father of a Hamilton Senior and he raves about the school and how much his daughter loves the school.
Ironically, on my drive to work this morning, I passed a car sporting both Vassar and Hamilton window stickers.
From what I have learned, I think you are on the money placing Hamilton between Colgate and Vassar as to vibe and student body. Frankly, I would be happy with any choice he makes from this group and which ever is his choice, we’ll do our best to make that happen. Thanks again for your opinion.</p>
