[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me just share that my Georgetown students who come from the DMV area report that they usually do not spend much time going to their parents' houses, although a few say they bring friends to their family dinners, etc. on occasion but then go back to campus. (the friends seem to love the homecooked meals on random in-between break weekends). [/quote]

Thanks. Assumed the student would be on campus other than Thanksgiving/Christmas/Spring Break.

But how do kids like staying in DC for school when they grew up in DMV?

And what is the general SFS culture like among students and teachers. Collaborative, friendly? High pressure, intense?[/quote]

I guess what I intended to convey is that there is a common idea that if you go to a school in your hometown it's like you are not really changing locations and you'll cling to your parents. I conveyed more about the latter. What I'll say about the "not really changing locations" is that your kid probably learns and experiences a whole new side of the DMV area, and given the number of internships and other activities that GU kids occupy themselves with (besides classes, friends, etc.), they kind of will be experiencing a whole new city anyway. And they'll travel to other places instead of come home on weekends. All things I've observed among the students over the years...[/quote]
