@gardenstategal - Ha! We live really close to Haverford. He wants no part of suburban Philly - wants to spread his wings, and I don’t blame him. But we’re going to tour anyway, because he needs to start seeing what different schools feel like (and I actually used to live right next door to the campus and want to tour it. Ha.)

@homerdog - I am from a small town in upstate NY. Was third in my class, very active in school, etc. I signed up for an interview at Williams, which was basically 45 minutes in a room with someone dressed very shodily (I believe she was in jeans and a flannel shirt?) who basically started off the “interview” by telling me I had very little chance of getting in because I didn’t go to a prestigious school. I made the best of it, and sold myself the best I knew how, but found the whole thing to be very disrespectful. And then my Dad and I witnessed a roommate fight in the dining hall. It felt very “mean girls” This poor girl was in hysterics for being mistreated by her roommate and the roommate and her friends (Buffy, Biffy and Chip) just laughed at her. I just didn’t get “the feels” there. But it was a loooong time ago. You should definitely check it out for yourselves.
