Our next-door-neighbor decided to attend a good northeast LAC known for being quite preppy, somewhat conservative and a bit wild socially. I remember thinking at the time, as her mother did, that this school might not ‘fit’ her personality, and for the entire first year this turned out to be the case. She felt she had nothing in common with the majority of the student body. She considered transferring, but valued the academics and decided to stick with it.
She don’t know if she ever really warmed up to the social life there, but by the second year had found her niche and ended up with a group of very close friends. But yes, it is so hard to hear that they are unhappy!
