[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm hearing comments about my DD's applications... "I wouldn't send her to CNU, I heard they have drug issues there". How weird is that? I had never heard anything of the sort. She was accepted to another school in the south and have gotten the "oh, you don't want to send her there, they have problems..." And then, because we live in NOVA, so many people ask "is she going to UVA?" She's not even applying there. [/quote] Maybe it's like baby names. If you say you're naming our child "Efghi," you'll get different responses than if you're naming her "Emily." People's responses may be rude, in some cases, but they give you information about people's perceptions: you might not like that "Efghi" has a "creative" connotation, while "Emily" is "basic." Honestly, if someone said my child's college choice is known for drug issues, I'd want to know more. Doesn't mean I wouldn't let me child apply or attend, but I might look more into that issue.[/quote]
