“Colleges That Change Lives” List

[Anonymous]

I’m from the Midwest so I may be a little biased. I know people who graduated from Wooster, Wheaton, Oberlin, Ohio Wesleyan, Earlham, Kalamazoo, Denison and Lawrence and all are doing well in different fields- law, medicine, education, government, etc.

Personally know many in medicine from Hendrix, Southwestern, Rhodes, St. Olaf, Juniata, Oberlin, Millsaps, Austin earning high 6-figures/yr. Some are dual physician couples over 1M/yr.

We attended a CTCL fair. Coming out of it my student liked Bard, Oberlin and Ohio Wesleyan the most (we’d visited Dension in person previously).

Yeah I was about to say. I applied to college 20 years ago and the list is pretty much the same.

You could say same for big publics in states the administration doesn’t like. Federal government has been pulling funding to those schools and tot he states.

One big tornado or hurricane could throw certain states into financial stress if FEMA won’t be sent to help, for example.

Add to that firing Feds or not paying them…and you have a brewing storm.

Add to that fired contractors…

I wonder what person invented the moniker, “Colleges That Change Lives.” I would investigate what each of these schools do differently and how it would assist my child.

As a first gen immigrant going to and graduating from any college in the US changed life. The American Dream.
