I’d choose Vandy. And, yes, everyone, I get it that $40,000 in student loans is not a small number. And if its not financially possible to pull this off, then it isn’t.

But.

I wonder if there’s something more at play here…that is, the apprehension over the unknown…moving away from the midwest…being surrounded by very bright kids…I think you would do superbly there…but you wouldn’t be the first person to focus on one issue when sometimes the issue is something else…
