Why did you pick your college?

I think my daughter first noticed Swarthmore because the college guides say things like very intellectual, super academic, etc. The more she looked into it the more she liked it since she plans on grad school and their record is so good for students going on to higher degrees. Also earlier this year there was an article in the NYT about students making snap decisions on college visits and one mother said her daughter wouldn’t get out of the car at Swat because she saw someone wearing birkenstocks. I thought maybe it is that simple since my daughter lives in birks.
