[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Permission to reinvent yourself without people you knew from high school questioning why you’re evolving. Lots of options, easy to pivot when interests change. Easier to be anonymous and not have everyone knowing your business. I went to a school of 4500 and we knew withing hours when people screwed up...and that was before social media. [/quote] On the contrary, if you go to a large in-state college, it is nearly impossible to reinvent yourself as 20-50 of your high school classmates will be there with you. And if you go to a large out of state college, chances are that many people are hanging out with their high school friends. I’m having a hard time believing that almost 5,000 kids knew someone’s business within minutes. My dd has about 600 in her grade in HS and still hasn’t met at least a quarter of them by senior year.
