[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BC and Villanova will have the pretty campus that ND has - Holy Cross does not.  They also have the school spirit - though nothing will be ND football.

I agree with the others that you have to identify what draws her.  There are lots of Midwest colleges, Catholic colleges, football dominant colleges, pretty campus colleges, popular name colleges . . .  What is the appeal to her?  Though frankly if she’s been saying it since 6th grade, it’s likely the name only or some connection to someone that she wants to continue because I highly doubt she was matching interest to college major and school reputation at that age.[/quote]

I think "pretty campus" is a matter of taste.  My opinion is that the College of the Holy Cross has a MUCH prettier campus than Villanova and most of BC's campus.  There is one area near the BC old gothic library that is beautiful. but the dilapidated senior "temporary" housing in the mud is not very attractive.[/quote]

I think the PP was referring to HC in Indiana, not Massachusetts.
