[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I fell like some of you have never visited or even know anything about either school. I am from Massachusetts and these schools are not even in the same stratosphere.

Tufts is not urban and Mount Holyoke is not in a depressed area. It is just very rural and you probably need to be an outdoorsy person to enjoy it.

Lastly, Wellesley is the only all woman;s college that moves the needle.[/quote]

"Moves the needle"? To ... where?[/quote]

Wellesley gets a certain quality of recruiters that MHC or even Smith do not. When comparing college prestige, it is worthwhile to consider that significant more prestigious college is going to open more doors for your first job after graduation. MHC is a fine college but it is fair to be honest when comparing it to Tufts or Wellesley. [/quote]

The topic here is MHC vs Tufts, not MHC vs Wellesley. By making an argument for Wellesley, [b]you seem to be implying that you can’t make an argument for Tufts[/b] - especially in the fields where the MHC and Tufts have comparable majors.[/quote]

Actually, I think PP is saying s/he can't make the argument for MHC. I think PP's assumption is that the quality of recruiters at Tufts are at a higher quality as a given than MHC so that is a meaningful difference, among others. But it would not be a meaningful difference with Wellesley.[/quote]
