[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nah. Lacks bang for the buck. Classic case of high price combined with insufficient prestige.[/quote] It actually is quite prestigious amongst people that matter.[/quote] "[P]eople that matter" = people that are impressed that you come from a family that could afford to send you to an expensive school or are looking for a marker that you're from their UMC+ socioeconomic tier. (It's not going to impress the Harvard/Yale crowd, FYI.) Middlebury's a good school, and OP's kid will get a quality education there. Maybe rub elbows with some 1%ers for an internship or better. I wouldn't personally pay full price for it, but, if that's where your kid wants to go and you're not paying for it with your retirement money, why not?[/quote]
