<p>Hi carrgo! Welcome to CC! I think I am the only one with a senior writing presently, and maybe you are wondering about him? ME, TOO! He just got back home from a soccer tournament in Memphis which is five hours from where we live, and he still hasn’t made up his mind. I think. At least he hasn’t decided out loud! In my visit to Rhodes, I was impressed by the apparent safety of the campus. It is in a city, yes, so it is not perfectly safe, but being in a city was son’s chief criterion in winnowing out schools; he loves the action a city provides. His junior class trip was to Memphis, many folks I know have lived or spent time there, or gone to Rhodes, and I have never heard of a crime directly affecting these folks. I don’t know much about where Emory is in Atlanta, but I personally might be more concerned about Atlanta. Rhodes seems so much more contained than, say, UPenn, where my daughter is in Philly. </p>
<p>What other things is your child thinking of when making a decision?</p>
