[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm looking for a current school not in the Top 20 or maybe even Top 40 that many of our kids will be flocking to in the not so distant future.  I'm thinking of the future [b]Middlebury[/b], or Kenyon (both of which were relatively unknown, or considered safety schools 30 years ago). [/quote]

Middlebury has always been quite well known to people in the know.[/quote]

Middlebury was a reach school for many of us in 1979.[/quote]

It was a safety for my HS boyfriend; his parents were both alums and even they were disappointed he didn't get into a more selective school!  But, don't get your panties in a swivet -- he had a great experience -- lots of skiing and preppy parties -- and can now say he went to a (currently) top-ranked SLAC.  How lucky was he?     [/quote]

Was smack dab in the middle for me - didn't get into my 3 reaches, got into my 3 safeties. Ended up at Middlebury and loved it. All my friends are in agreement that we would never get in today. It's a lot more competitive now and has a lot more to offer then it used to.  So, I get what the OP is saying.[/quote]
