[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s what I like about being not-wealthy at a place like Dartmouth: most socializing takes place on campus and revolves around campus events. Boston is a very long drive away. There isn’t much to buy or do with money on campus. It’s not the most fashionable place because by November everyone just gives up and decides to be warm and dry vs. stylish. [b]One of my kids was at Dartmouth and one at Yale. Yale was a more challenging place to be not-rich, because there was such easy access to NYC as well as people’s family homes in the tri-state area. Wealth showed more obviously there. [/b] If we could do it all over again, I would choose isolated campuses vs ones near cities and easy transportation, because that dampens the impact of family wealth within the student body. [/quote] Yale undergrads do not head into NYC on any kind of regular basis. The vast majority of socializing is on campus.[/quote]
