[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the college environment. My kid started at a small T20 SLAC in a small, boring town and found that campus life focused on drinking and there was nothing else if you did not want to drink all weekend. Transferred to a city school with coffee shops, restaurants, museums, etc to build a better, more interesting life. Much happier, never looked back.[/quote] +1. My kid transferred from a similar school for virtually the same reasons to one in a major city. Make sure your child really wants to be in a college town. Mine thought they did but turns out they really didn't. I'd recommend spending more than just a tour there. Perhaps an extended weekend just to make sure that's what they really want. [/quote]
