[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps simpler for you to state her college (or at least what city it is in). My kid's experience in a small town might not be relevant. [/quote] This is OP. I see your point, but I was actually curious about differences in big cities vs. smaller towns, especially with another child starting next year. DD is at JMU. We give her $300 a month. I believe it's more than generous. She blows through it fast. She does not have her own extra savings. I'm guessing it's going to alcohol + some semi-legitimate extra costs related to being in a sorority (group outings that, while optional, are certainly nice to participate in). So, since this board is NOVA/DMV heavy, I'm especially interested in hearing from people at JMU. But again, I think seeing differences is interesting. I hate to be sexist too, but I do see difference between male/female, depending on the number of things considered essential (which I understand is subjective). [/quote]
