My D loved Smith when she visited, but was uncomfortable in neighboring Northampton. The atmosphere, to her, seemed almost contrived, as though people went out of their way to be off-beat, quirky…she’s a very liberal kid, but felt out-of-place and unaccepted.

When we returned home, she spoke with a few Smith students who confirmed that PC was a BIG issue at Smith. I wonder if it’s like that at other women’s colleges.
