[quote=Anonymous]Not necessarily on W&M. My kid is there now and all during the admissions process, tours, open house, HS visits, interview, etc. the reps from the school emphasized being involved in one’s community. One of the Admissions folks said the W&M community is too small to take in people who aren’t engaged in their surrounding community. She said engagement takes many forms and listed sports, clubs, community service, working a paid job while going to school, caring for family members like younger siblings or older relatives so that parents could go to work, etc. If your daughter likes reading, use that as a jumping off point. A job in a bookstore, volunteer at the local library, look for volunteer opportunities that involve reading aloud to others, etc. [/quote]
