Yes, that is a good observation. I think after the tour and info session she felt HPU would make sure she had a job when she graduated and she feared it wasn’t a certain thing at other colleges and she became scared of not having a job after college. We had many conversations afterwards about what is the purpose of college, why do we spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to go, the development of individuality and self, what is the mission of tour guides, etc. Nearly had an existential crisis myself. Anyway, it wasn’t the manicured lawns and she was able to step back a bit after a few days and view the school from a different angle. It is interesting how she felt at the end of the tour and how differently I felt…not sure if it’s a difference in generations… Things that made me uneasy were the exact same thing that she felt reassured with…for instance the piped in classical music played throughout campus gave me the feeling of making a homogeneous group and she viewed it as them having a scientific and wholistic approach to providing an environment best suited for learning. She left feeling that this may be the only place where she could succeed…and that made me feel like she had been brainwashed. It is an impressive college, and has a unique approach to education and it began to make me thing higher education is due for a shake up.
