Should I reconsider Oberlin as a possible school?

My daughter is a current junior and has loved her experience. She applied ED before we knew about the Gibson’s incident but I would still allow her to apply today. She did the fly in and fell in love with the campus atmosphere and the opportunities she saw.

As a previous posted pointed out, Oberlin has many unique things like Ex-Co, art rental, Co-ops and more. My daughter has taken 4 different Ex-co’s and has even taught two of her own and loves that experience. She is a double major who plans to study abroad and her professors have all been strong.

She is not a SJW and honestly none of her friends all either - most are musicians and writers who enjoy the mix of high academics with no cut throat pressure. I encourage OP to keep an open mind and visit Oberlin if possible because there is a lot to like.
