[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]William and Mary.  Horribly dull, current students wouldn't look anyone in the eye, dreary feel all around.  [/quote]
Students at W&M hate the tours bc they always block pathways and academic buildings and I don't blame them. [/quote]

DP.  Tours block the way on all campuses.  Students usually take it in stride and more often than not, smile or interact graciously.  Not at W&M.  One of many total turnoffs at that school.[/quote]
Students do not at all care about you touring. They just want you to get out of their way.[/quote]

And again - students at other schools are far more gracious about inconvenient and annoying tour groups.  [/quote]

all the students and faculty (even people in cafeterias) we ran across when we toured schools were so kind and rah-rah about their schools.

My daughter and I toured Meredith College in NC. She was there as a potential dance and exercise science double major. She took a class first thing in the morning while I sat and chatted with the head of the department at length (one of her students was instructing that day). We then wondered past a brand new building and the head of the construction team saw us looking and said "come on in and look around" - the building included the exercise science department and it was lovely. We wound up in the cafeteria next, where all the staff just gushed about how much they loved the school and students. We ran into some of the students from the class my child had been to and they all said hello and told her how much she would love being there. It was such a nice experience.

She went to another small LAC in the end, but we had positive experiences basically everywhere we went.[/quote]
