<p>As additional food for thought, the Featured Discussion entitled You Know You’re a Smithie When posted by The Dad is said by rocket6louise in a Reply post as being “It’s pretty darn accurate.” This post by The Dad ties in with many of the above discussions, especially the strong emphasis on homosexuality at Smith College. One might even say that so many of the numbered items almost make it sound like lesbianism is an obsession on campus. As examples on The Dad’s post: “You make passes at girls who wear glasses”; “You think that guy’s really cute,” but it turns out that that guy “is a girl”; “You have made out with a girl or thought of making out with a girl”; “DAMN. THE. MAN”; “You can count your heterosexual friends on one hand”. The Dad refers to an unpublished statistic that 70% of entering freshman are straight when entering Smith. What is the percentage at graduation after four years of pressure? Is the population by then 70% homosexual after four years in this environment? Also, no one has responded as to my earlier query as to why Smith alumni giving rate is so much “lower” than many liberal arts colleges ranked far below it. Could it be because by the time graduation rolls around, the enthusiasm for Smith has waned to the point that money is not given to the college later? It is common sense that those students most happy with their college experience give generously to their college later, but this is not the case with Smith.</p>
