<p>“I am really surprised to hear that story. I think your guide told it how it was when she said “she was in the minority politically” there. But, still, unbelievable that she said all that. We, too, had some characters on our many tours and S would have crossed many fine places off his list if he had used some of them as a criteria. But I agree that schools ought to do their best to ensure that those representing the school are not like the young woman you encountered.”</p>
<p>Agreed. If the school had felt right otherwise, I would have suggested that she overlook the tour guide’s comments and/or go back another day. Just goes to show how one guide can influence someone’s decision. The school was breathtakingly gorgeous and had much to offer … including a beautiful new science center. Just wasn’t right for my daughter - but I am sure there are many incredibly happy young women there - like everywhere else.</p>
