<p>Very interesting indeed. Here’s what jumped out at me:
- 25% are first generation college students! I wonder what that number is nationally.
- only 11% from private HS
- interesting that while MN is 2nd-highest source of OOS, it only supplies 1/10th as many as IL!! Certainly confirms my observations durinig my campus visits - seems like every other parent I met was from Naperville or Arlington Hts!</p>
<p>Oh, and RWE, IC doesn’t get what we winter snobs call “a real winter.” It’ll see snow but it’ll see big thaws as well, and I doubt any temps anywhere near -40! Not that this will offer much consoloation to your daughter whose probably already got the down vest out, but it could be much worse!</p>
