[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its no different than enrolling kids in catholic schools or join church choir etc. There are sports, scouting, tutoring and other fun activities too. Commuter college is mostly due to cost and marriages are often based on similar culture and ethnicity.

The difference is that OP wants advice on how to insure that this childhood indoctrination continues into adulthood.

Another difference that that in the above scenario, the parents are purposely restricting their kids so they'll remain in their childhood religion as adults.[/quote]

NP.  I disagree with your characterization of OP.  The OP wants to know how to encourage their kids to stay in their faith but doesn't seem like a control freak.

OP, when I was in college, the only kids who were overtly religious were a few Catholic kids who went to on-campus mass and the Jewish kids who liked the campus Jewish associations/clubs.  So I would factor availability of services and associations/clubs into your campus evaluations.  While not recommending wholly religious institutions.  Religion has to be freely chosen to earn a permanent spot in an American family's rituals.[/quote]
