[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also look at St Lawrence. Great D3 sports, beautiful and walkable campus (in a small town surrounded by other colleges), loyal alumni base, wonderful merit aid for kids with her stats.[/quote]

They’re both party schools for rich kids who don’t want to actually go to college for the academics, but their parents are making them anyway.  Any serious student would have a lot of regrets.[/quote]

Sweeping generalizations like that are just plain ignorant.

Susan Collins, the Senator from Maine, attended St. Lawrence.

The current CEO of Texas Instruments attended Union.

It didn't keep them from achieving their goals.[/quote]

Yes you are correct, that poster is a purposeful troll, the academics are excellent at those colleges. Union's STEM programs and facilities are shockingly good for an LAC and easy to evaluate as they show them off on the tours. Ask them about grad school placement rates too.  Don't trust anonymous posters who clearly know nothing and were likely rejected.[/quote]

I’m the PP and no I was not rejected. My son’s best friend went to St. Lawrence for a year before transferring to a much better school (T20) and the stories he has told us are insane.  And no, my son himself did not apply to either of these joke schools.[/quote]

No, you're a troll, or someone HUGELY uninformed.  Probably both.

You've never visited, done no research, offer no stats, no supporting information, just an anecdote about St L from your son's BFF, and nothing about Union at all despite you're taking a shot at it.

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.[/quote]

Why are you freaking out? Assuming you graduated from Union, your knee jerk defensiveness is not helping the school’s image[/quote]

Meh. I’m not that PP but the original PP she was responding to really did sound like an idiot. Sometimes idiots are frustrating. I probably wouldn’t have been that strongly opinionated, but that other PPs post really was pretty stupid. [/quote]
