[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your son is playing a sport, I don't think you have to worry about this.  I would think he would have stuff in common with teammates.

Vassar, is the tough one.  Just not a lot of males on campus.[/quote]

And even fewer straight males and even fewer who would be into fantasy football.[/quote]

I would be so much more interested in hearing from people with actual knowledge rather than people slinging old stereotypes. I'm the one who really liked Vassar from a visit. On the first point, while it has a somewhat smaller share of men than some of the others, it's also larger than many SLACs, so I don't think the absolute number of guys is so different. Secondly, while I know the reputation for attracting gay guys, it seemed like there were plenty of straight guys, or at any rate, guys that looked like people my son would be perfectly happy to be friends with. The vibe seemed academic, interesting and the kids seemed polished, not excessively theatrical or whatever you seem to think.[/quote]
