[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is a junior and my nephew just graduated. Our experience has been a mixed bag.  My DD went to a small Christian school and the change in the size dynamics was our biggest issue.  She went from being a big fish to a minnow.  That was the biggest challenge.  As a freshman, she felt more like a number.  Once she got involved and had a set of friends, it was easier.  One thing that we did like was a diversity….racially and socio-economically.

Some info we got from the junior meeting….In looking at the class of 2011, here is a sample of the colleges where some of the graduates will be going – Princeton, Stanford, Duke, UVA, UNC Chapel Hill, West Point, Annapolis, the Air Force Academy, Michigan and Emory.  Pretty good selection.  Plus, a lot of kids this year are going to the liberal arts schools that you see mentioned in DCUM. St Mary’s, St. Vincent, McDaniel, Middlebury, Washington and Lee, Holy Cross, Bucknell, Oberlin.  One of the college counselors said that this is a new phenomena that they are pushing pretty heavy. Also, if your child is an athlete, over 65 kids in the class of 2011 will be playing sports in college at all levels.  So…there is a lot of food for thought.
