<p>My concern is that it may be more than merely an unhappiness with being unable to pursue theatre (as noted in a number of posts above there is a LOT of art making at Harvard-- the last weekend in April was Arts First and the entire campus was awash in all sorts of art making by undergraduates). </p>
<p>It could be just that-- but also make certain that it is not the cover for a deeper unhappiness–an unhappiness that will transcend wherever she is at school. Obviously it is impossible for any of us to even hazard a guess, but make certain that the “easy” answer that she doesn’t like her house or she wants more theatre isn’t just that–an easy answer. Please, please make sure her residential dean knows of her unhappiness–each house has hundreds of students and those who are quiet and sad are often the ones who get overlooked as the dean deals with those who are much more noticeably “in trouble”.</p>
<p>Again, I am not writing that there IS more than the reasons stated for her unhappiness, but just make sure that that is all there is.</p>
