<p>You’re welcome, operamom. Thank you for your kind words. </p>
<p>Scholarfeminist, I am willing to bet that many other students have had similar experiences with Wellesley. If we found each other on this tiny thread, common sense points toward a larger true number of people with similar stories. It is very sad that they are unwilling to act on their own mantra of diversity. Diversity is not limited to a minority box checked on an application. Moreover, the type of diversity that is welcome should not be limited to what can be quantified and used to improve USNews rankings scores… I’ll stop before I go on a rant about the worthlessness of the rankings lol.</p>
<p>I do think that we will be very happy at Mount Holyoke. Mount Holyoke certainly has the most beautiful campus I viewed during my search, and the students are well-spoken and incredibly friendly. We will be part of a truly diverse, open, tight community! </p>
<p>Feel free to send me a private message and I’ll reply with my contact info. :)</p>
