Lol. Well, they don't care because Harvard doesn't need to sell itself through campus tours. |
Cambridge is definitely not the "meh" place it once was 25-30 years ago. However, it's a bit of a stretch to call it both "charming" and "world class"... |
Well, then I suggest you live or tour New York City.
It is truly a world-class city with so many remarkable places and opportunities. Prices do not have to be expensive. many reasonable options and opportunities. Museums are magnificent. Columbia University and Morningside Heights are very stimulating. |
I went to Arizona State University (in the 1990's), and it looks and feels like a beautiful resort complete with palm trees lining the sidewalks.
So I have to keep quiet when visiting pretty much all colleges with my DD, as most of them are a disappointment in my eyes (even though they look fine to her). |
Which is why residents are leaving in droves to Florida. |
Residents as in the Trump family? Ha |
Cornell (too crunchy for DD) and Williams (too snobby for DD). |

You have the most distinct writing/communication style of any poster EVER!! I recognized you immediately from this thread. Amirite? https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/952518.page#19361030 |
This is hilarious. |
And this, right here, is the reason why most schools need to increase their percentages of first-generation students to 99.9%. Just to lock your snowflake's entitled ass out. It was raining at the best public university in the country and your precious Larlo decided it was good enough for him? BTW, it's not 'John's Hopkins', it's Johns Hopkins, you idiot. |
Villanova. |
Why they don't put more money into their dorms, I have no idea. If they did, they would completely increase their applicant pool and rankings. Just look at Columbia... |
Syracuse |
Hmm, in NOLA right now and felt comfortable walking around, you just have to choose where you are walking, like in any big city. I grew up in Baltimore and definitely find it worse than New Orleans as far as safety - whole different vibe to downtown. We have crossed off a few schools that felt too urban / ugly. Seton Hall being one, La Salle was another. The area around Tulane - St Charles Ave - was lovely. |
