<p>My D will be a Freshman this Fall, and I don’t feel like I have a handle on the “feel” of the school, as I have only visited it once very briefly (no tour and we live on West Coast). Please help me gain an understanding of what Yale is all about, by describing it in 3 adjectives if you can. Thanks!</p>
<p>hmm…that’s difficult. i think you’ll get a better feel during parent’s weekend, which my parents enjoyed very much.</p>
