[quote=Anonymous]To the PP who said: "We'd just like the burb families to be less tacky and actually pay their way for once in a blue moon." Take a look at the donor page in your school publications. Put a "MD" or a "VA" next to each family you recognize as being a "tacky burb family." Then do the math. Schools are admitting suburban families in part because they want to cast a wide net -- to admit the top student from each school. But they're admitting them in part because they ARE paying their way (and ours) through very significant donations. DC residents do not tend to make capital or annual gifts at the same level as suburban families. Ask your development officer. If s/he knows you well enough, you won't get a diplomatic answer but the truth. [/quote]
