[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Admissions rep.from Mt. Holyoke asked me where we summered. Nope. Not gonna fit in there. [/quote]

:D [/quote]that’s odd, as Mt Holyoke has a big international population, and it’s not all rich kids like some of the colleges courting foreign tuition.[/quote]

Do you think that a lot of poor college students from other countries wind up at one of the original 7 sister colleges? I heard about one who had to be taught how to do laundry because in her home country, this task was handled exclusively by servants. (Though, I understand in many countries that is much more common than here).

But yeah, MHC is not notorious for having privileged kids. I would say Conn and Middlebury are worse for that. [/quote]

Agreed, though it was an American girl that set the washer on fire when I was there. She put too much in it; had never done laundry before. This was a while ago, and i'd say the privilege level is reduced now. This is all an aside. It's ranked high for best classroom experience.[/quote]
