broetchen,

My son is not involved in any of the religious activities as the Jewish population is very small and there really aren’t any activities. However, he loves learning more about different religions and having discussions about it with his friends. It’s also making him more confident in his own beliefs. I suspect the same would happen to any student at Hillsdale.

2daughters,

Drinking has not seemed to be an issue. You’ll find it on any college campus - no matter what Admissions tells you. However, because of the type of student who is interested in attending Hillsdale, it is easily avoided without becoming a social pariah.

After attending Parents’ Weekend last week, I can honestly say that I was impressed with the focus of students I met on their academics. Also, these are not cookie cutter students. They have many different interests and views.

Good luck!
