<p>Even though we now see that this type of question is asked frequently (College A vs College B or C), each of your opinions unfolds a new wrinkle or subtlety.
My daughter was, and perhaps still is, fearful of what we have heard of New England weather. I guess it all depends on attitude. The description of Vermont and coastal Maine as “two of nature’s greates gifts” was helpful, too. I hope that both Midd and Bowdoin provide a sense of comeraderie, shared purpose, and accomplishment. So she is off to visit Midd (this weekend), then Bowdoin.
Again, many thanks to all of you, including those who sent private messages.</p>
