[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We toured a lot of colleges with our kid. Almost all were immediately and often illogically hated and these are the reasons why. This was in spring and fall of 2019. JMU: the highway and bus system VT: hokie this and hokie that all day long CNU: The walmart down the road had the kitchen knife sets locked behind glass UVA: hated the campus URochester: yellow jacket mascot Lafayette: tour guide referenced Harry Potter and a quidditch team Marist: tour guide mentioned free tutoring too much Cornell: everyone was walking and eating alone with airpods in Ithaca: lots of blue and burgundy hair and black clothes, decided to skip the tour completely Skidmore: there was some festival in town and lots of guys wearing skirts UVM: too many beanies for a 60 degree day Colgate:we literally had to stop the car because a bear was in the road Villanova:kid misheard the tour guide and spent the whole tour thinking the school had 60,000 students, so had already dismissed it [/quote] Yikes....How big was that colgate bear? Just planning a Colgate, Hamilton, Cornell loop and bears did not really occur to me around there. I was thinki g that was farmland area, not forest.[/quote]
