[quote=Anonymous] I agree the tour guides at Cornell are horrible. All are doing it for $$$ through their financial aid package. I think that's true for most schools. Its not like they actually WANT to be a tour guide.[/quote] Oh no - not financial aid kids who need to make money by being tour guides! No wonder people hate tours so often. Where are the wealthy and legacy kids to tour you around, so your kids can strive to be like them? In fact, it is very competitive to get a job as a tour guide at most schools - and definitely at highly selective schools. Will you sometimes get a crappy tour guide at any school? Sure, but that is someone having an off day or the admissions office doing a poor job in selection and/or training. I know a bunch of kids who are college tour guides and (around 50% of dd's friends - on FA and not - do it), and they all love the job and were proud when they got it because it was so competitive.[/quote]
