[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's total culture shock. DH is from Columbia, SC. Our nieces went to Wilson and South Carolina. They were popular and involved in athletics and sororities. But they had a major cultural adjustment. One found God (family was not religious) and joined what I perceived as a religious cult where she had to fundraise money. The other was sexually assaulted by a close friend and then became very involved with victims' rights.

Our DS toured South Carolina thinking he would like it. Over a long break, he stayed with a cousin in the dorm for three days. He said it lacked diversity. He hated how everyone dressed alike and acted "polite" but were pretty racist. Not a super academic place. Area around Four Points that the students can hang out is pretty dangerous. Columbia is a college town and they don't have a lot to do outside football games. [/quote]

It's Five Points, sweetheart, but that's OK.

It is really a dangerous area?  Seems like it had a lot of nice restaurants and bars?[/quote]

+1. Funny coming from someone in Washington, DC.[/quote]
