[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL BU for me. It was the safety for C students at my private school. In CA, UC Berkeley had a 50% acceptance rate and would accept most solid B students. UC San Diego was for dummies. UC Davis was a safety for anyone with Bs and a few Cs. [/quote] Did we go to the same prep school? Our college office put BU on every single college list, it was treated as a near-universal safety. We were far enough from Boston that I never heard of NEU until my kids were looking. UConn and UMass were almost unthought of. Although in fairness the one girl I knew who went from my prep school to UMass is the only one of us all who wound up writing for the New Yorker, so maybe we were always just snobs. [/quote]
