[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the Instagram/TikTok posting culture makes schools with big sports teams more popular. There is a “hype” mentality in the social media lives of Gen Z that makes huge state schools with more obvious branding (like slogans, mascots, chants, etc.) more appealing. They are easier to post about than SLACs. [/quote] +1. Especially if they're warm weather.[/quote] I agree. My TikTok obsessed sophomore wants a big, known school with (preferably) warm weather. My older child is headed to the complete opposite- small, selective LAC in the middle of nowhere. The older child doesn't use Instagram or TikTok and if they did would still not be influenced by it. They knew that they wanted a small liberal arts college. [/quote]
