[quote=Anonymous]I used to feel neutral about ND but the proliferation of these threads on DCUM and the weird hate from some corners combined with the honestly often childish boosters (some of whom must be still in school or recent grads just based on the level of defensiveness and immaturity) has totally turned me off. Why would I want my kid to go to a school about which people have such divided feelings? It doesn’t seem worth the drama. Also don’t want my kid being pegged as a narrowly defined type of person, which it seems is common with ND. Some of that seems like the kind of nasty stereotyping common in the college world (I recently heard someone describe everyone at Dartmouth as a rapist, for a pretty terrible example that I know for a fact to be really untrue). But some of it also seems to be because ND is so focused on a narrow demographic for recruitment? Again, just doesn’t seem worth it.

It seems like a great school academically and I have personally know a number of terrific alums, but this is way too much baggage, and a lot if it the school brought on itself.[/quote]
