@happy mom. Thanks. That was our feeling about the “life of the mind.” I think she will do that wherever she goes. I think she is looking for immersion not isolation.

@beantown. I hear you and that is part of my discomfort. I don’t believe that name brand is necessarily fit. Or GPA determines growth potential. BMC is not right for every woman. And we were waitlisted at Wellesley which we couldn’t afford anyway. That is the only women’s college in the Boston area that fit our science needs. We have tried to communicate that learning takes place not just in the classroom. We are not able to afford the school associated travel/study abroad experiences that come with BM. Ds study abroad kind of has to be Boston.

Thanks to you both
