[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here--thanks all the helpful input. I'm sitting in our hotel room while daughter went for a jaunt around the Davidson campus without mom. We decided to take the last minute roadtrip b/c admissions has graciously arranged a private tour for us tomorrow morning with a theater major who happens to be working in the admissions office this summer.  We have told our daughter that the decision is hers and hers alone, and hubby and I will celebrate whichever she chooses.  Funny about the PP mentioning the thread with a boyfriend involved. Our daughter's boyfriend already told her she should go to Smith :-).  However, it appears he is likely to be disappointed as daughter's texted me that she's pretty certain it'll be Davidson. It's likely we will be leaving a deposit before we depart tomorrow.

The Davidson campus is quite charming as is the Town of Davidson, and the weather could not be nicer. The campus was pretty active today--it turns out it was reunion weekend. We did find some students and young alums still on campus. We chatted with a few very friendly Davidson baseball players in town who were getting ready to leave for the summer. They told my daughter in no uncertain terms that she should pick Davidson. One directed us to Davidson's Lake Campus which we checked out on our own.  Now that was a bonus! The Davidson Lake Campus is a lakefront recreation area on Lake Norman solely for the college community and even has a sandy beach w/kayaks and boats for the students to checkout. Smith has Paradise Pond but nothing like Lake Norman and certainly not the climate to go swimming in the fall and spring.[/quote]

Smart girl. Congrats to her.[/quote]
