[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What sold me on Richmond (my DC is applying) was we had a very earnest and dorky-charismatic tour guide. During the tour, other students kept waving to him, shouting out his name, what have you. One very pretty blonde turned to another and said about him, out of his earshot but not mine, "I LOVE that kid!" Just gave me a good feeling about the school.[/quote]

This tracks with our experience there. [/quote]

I know about 15 kids heading to Richmond from Baltimore private schools next fall.  They are all very main stream, preppy kids—nearly all high school athletes who aren’t athletic recruits.  The ones I know well plan on rushing.  They are all nice kids, but I don’t think there is a big culture of quirky kids at Richmond.  [/quote]
The fact that you know 15 preppy non-recruitable athletes says more about your social circle than the school they picked. [/quote]

I think this is suppose to be an insult?  Yes, my 2026 is an athlete at a private school (not going to any of the schools that are the subject of this thread) so I do. I also know two recruited athletes from Baltimore privates going to Richmond.  As I said before, all great kids, but all apparently of a type you don’t like.  Not sure how else to read your comment.[/quote]
