[quote=Anonymous]One of my kids went to Yale and the other visited and said he wouldn't apply. When I asked him to articulate why he said he did not like the Gothic architecture and he did not like the fact that in a lecture hall of a 150 desks not one was for lefties. Maybe those sound like stupid reasons to you, but they made sense to him as indicators of why he didn't want to be there. He ended up somewhere else and was very happy. It's the kid's decision, and whether the kid can fully articulate the reasons or not, they are there. And then we could discuss the fact that Harvard undergrads are mostly taught by TAs...[/quote]
