Wellesley, Whitman, or Grinnell?

Hi,
Has your D visited the three campuses? I think it is important for kids to spend a night if possible - generally they have very strong feelings after doing so. My D looked at Whitman two years ago and has several friends there (she ultimately choose Wesleyan) and my S is now looking at Grinnell. I remember my D telling me there was a lot of ‘pot’ at Whitman (can’t speak specifically to alcohol). I don’t think the Greek scene is much but I assume a lot of the partying goes on there. My S received a wonderful letter today from a Grinnell junior who is from California and currently studying in Turkey. She loves the school.
