radicalistic,
We attended the Admitted Students Day on Saturday with our son. We are also from the midwest and not totally comfortable with the " Confederacy" thing, which is one of the reasons we wanted to spent time in Williamsburg.

My observations from the visit: not very southern, but also not all that diverse. Yes, we saw African-Americans and Asians, but most of the prospective freshman present on Saturday were white.

And honestly, having toured over 30 campuses with 2 different sons, I think that’s just the way it is at most colleges, including Northwestern.

BTW, we all liked the school.
