[quote=Anonymous]This is second-hand, but for what it's worth . . . A couple of years ago I was chatting with a friend who is a St. Albans alum. He had two boys at Woodberry Forest and was pretty happy with the educational choice overall, but was looking for some academic summer opportunities for his sons because it was his impression that Woodberry Forest did not have a very intellectual atmosphere although there were plenty of bright kids. He did suggest that his son was becoming a bit more of the "Southern Country gentleman" (at the cost of an intellectually invigorating environment) than he perhaps would have liked, although emphasizing that the son had had good teachers and had a good group of friends. He said it wasn't very diverse ideologically either and he worried about his kids developing a very set view of the world from a young age.[/quote]
