[quote=Anonymous]This time next year my godson, who has his sights set on Landon, will be making decisions. ( assuming he gets in, which is obviously not guaranteed).

I have read the threads on lacrosse culture, many comments on the culture of landon, etc, and the phrase "lord of the flies" has been used more than once, including today.

Our friend's son has older friends who are at Landon, and it is his main choice for school. They fit these stereotypes, quite frankly, while he... no. I don't know. I think it might be a terrible match. He is skinny and european, and is interested in dorky tech stuff.

ANY landon alumni who were NOT lacrosse stars want to weigh in? I sometimes pick him up from school and feel like I need to be prepared for signs of bullying or depression. I want to be a trusted adult if things are not working out, or if he needs someone to talk to other than parents. His family and I are close and they play a similar role in our life....

thanks for any insight. please tell me there are skinny, socially awkward losers at landon. [/quote]
