[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid number 1 has completely broken out of his shell since attending a large public. Working through multiple bureaucracies like a health clinic appointment, registering and tryouts for club sport, meeting with advisors in 3 departments (major and 2 minors), withdrawing from honors program and visiting multiple 500+ unit apartment buildings to determine preferred off campus housing. Dealing with bureaucracy is a part of life and he is getting a head start. [/quote] My kid did that at a midsize private,,, even Ubered to the ER from his dorm after he trusted his instincts when the health clinic kept misdiagnosing acute appendicitis. Rented zipcar and played on teams in a town over, club sport, etc. study abroad, foreign internships, etc. It doesn’t need to be a big public to learn these skills….and it can start much earlier. My kids took the metro to high school from the suburbs. They would use metro in middle school. [/quote]
