Wow am I happy I didn’t go to that school. It looks underwhelming, at best. The second photo is downright ugly.


First of all, the hating isn't necessary. If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.

Two, I'm guessing you were rejected.

Three, personally, that is exactly what I think college is supposed to look like. Beautiful school. And I have no ties at all to Amherst.

I didn’t apply. Went to Wellesley then Harvard. I don’t understand why you’re so defensive of a school you didn’t attend-if anything, sounds like you got rejected and need to compensate.


+1. Weirdly defensive posts here. If you don’t want someone to say a campus is ugly, don’t post a pic of a bunch of dead grass.

Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder, but dead grass never looks good. I'm a bit suspicious when you can't find a decent glamour shot.

Only NESCAC school with good placement is Williams. MIDD and Tufts have declined in prestige markedly.

Troll wandering around. This one in particular has no idea what they are talking about but the pop up frequently. Pretty obvious that their kid didn’t get in.

The other NESCAC schools I would not consider to be targets but that didn’t mean some kids don’t break through. Being a student athlete in particular shouldn’t be disregarded as a major benefit.

Middlebury has had better placement than Amherst in finance for years now but people keep saying Amherst is the “top.” No, it is not. Top lac recruiting currently goes Williams, Middlebury, CMC, Amherst. Just because you know Williams/amherst, it doesn’t mean they’re actually at the top of everything.

Midd is falling in prestige, rankings,and its financial outlook. All well documented. It does not live in the same neighborhood of Williams, Amherst, or Bowdoin.

Middlebury has a solid contingent of kids of rich NYC Wall Street types, especially kids who like to ski. Daddy (or Mommy) will make sure the kids get good jobs. Stats will always look good.

Well documented but doesn’t provide a single source or indication of policy changes by the institution. Just a bunch of useless words that hold no weight.

This dim soul pops up whenever Middlebury is mentioned. They are really bitter, they deserve grace and pity.

Midd ranked 19th, Williams1, Amherst2 and Bowdoin 5. Based on that gap Midd is close to Trinity 36th.

So it's all fixed now?

Nope. Far from it. But these "women on Wall Street" groups are often counter-productive. I have been to some events and half the time it is tone deaf managing directors talking about how they have a fleet of nannies to take care of their kids, and how they don't even like their kids. Truly inspiring.


Hi JD Vance. Didn’t know you had time to post on a mommy blog. I’ve never heard working women say they don’t like their kids. As much as you want women to stay at home and raise kids, the groups that support working women are not going anywhere. 1950’s is dead in 2025

I heard one fairly prominent female executive say "why would anyone want to spend time on the floor playing with their kids" at a women's event. It was horrifying. And telling middle class women about having a fleet of highly paid nannies to raise your kids also isn't very helpful.

By the way, I'm guessing there are tons of Dads here so calling this a "mommy blog" is rude and disrespectful and exclusionary.

On Wall Street, not a chance. Back/middle office maybe. L & L grads work for Bucknell grads.
