[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DC is at Towson. I've been surprised at the transition. He lost his glasses at a party and then lost his air buds on campus the next day. Got meningitis (I know!!) and we helped get him situated with that. He does have ADHD so maybe this is to be expected.

DC seems to be liking it and DH and I are glad we didn't do the OOS option. DC has needed more "tucking in" than I expected[/quote]

I thought most colleges required the meningitis vaccine—does Towson not?

My senior’s doctor specifically said it was important to get before college, and most schools required it anyway. [/quote]

No a lot do not require it.

I got it for both of my kids, because well it seems dangerous not to.  Given that you can go from symptoms of having a cold/flu to being comatose/dead in 24 hours and that it's often misdiagnosed (if you can even get your kid to go to the ER/UrgentCare), it seemed prudent to get taxed.  
Got first shot summer before freshman year and the booster at xmas time (If I planned even better they would have had it 2 months earlier and then booster before heading to college)
