<p>Thanks for the comments on this topic of LACs to date. “Fit” is definitely an issue that resonates here. Perhaps I should begin a new thread–but your comments inspired to speak about a similar situation w/D & decision making time. We have a great challenge–D’s been accepted at Carleton, Kenyon, Swarthmore & Reed. I, too, adore Carleton (but it is not my decision~lol), where she completed their SWP. D thinks Reed (another school dad loves) a little more excentric, then she can handle for four years (from an overnight experience). She valued the outspoken nature of the students & sense of nurturing among the profs @ Kenyon. Swat, though not as generous as the LAC in Gambier, seems to be tugging at her heartstrings. I welcome comments, advice & suggestions-as you can make time.</p>
