<p>I don’t know if it’s common or not. Either way, that doesn’t make the practice Kosher. A top LAC, or any college, shouldn’t have to manufacture alumni. </p>
<p>I’m taking my daughter to Vassar for freshmen orientation tomorrow. Yup, Vassar still uses the word F word. I don’t have an inkling why. Anyway, lest you believe I’m directing my displeasure solely at Smith, if I learn Vassar too is guilty of fudging their list of notable alumni, I’ll certainly include Vassar in future rants.</p>
<p>On a lighter note, driving through town tonight, I noticed there was a barbecue outside of King. Lucky ladies. Only at Smith!</p>
