[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We visited Chicago and Northwestern on a very cold weekend, and both those schools dropped off DS’s list. DD crossed St. Lawrence off her list because it is so remote and Clark because it is in a pretty gritty part of Worcester. [/quote]

It's true St. Lawrence is difficult to get to and there is nothing there. My kid struck it off the list after attending their committed student's day. Kid is very mature and serious about academics and kid's field of interest. The school counselor who was kid's contact was so bad that it influenced him to drop it off the list. They clearly have a hard time hiring staff and hire people who have no clue about dealing with college students.  Some of the staff acted like it was a boarding school for jeuvenile delinquints and were very unpleasant to the students and parents. Kid had arranged to speak with a professor in kid's subject area and missed the meeting because of counselor. She actually tried to stop me from walking outside after the parent's lunch as if I was in high school. It was just bizarre.
