[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is at one and chose it over Brown. I have yet to run into anyone in real life who looks down on her choice, and she's doing just fine.[/quote]

My dd made the same choice - a WASP school over Brown. Honestly, she didn't care what others thought, though there were many who were shocked she didn't go to an Ivy League school. But then we are at a pretty much Ivy+ or bust mentality HS.[/quote]

Our Val last year chose Williams over Stanford, UCB, and an Ivy. It caused 'talk' because she is Asian.[/quote]

Our valedictorian last year also chose Williams over several ivies, coming from a famous boarding school - so it was also a bit scandalous. I hope they’ve met each other (I suspect they have). [/quote]

LACs are great for one who wishes to continue the elite New England boarding school experience as it allows high school athletes to continue in their role as big man on campus while continuing with one or two D III sports such as soccer or lacrosse.

Those asserting that it is easy to "skate by" at a top 50 National University are full of BS. Yes, there is little hand-holding at National Universities when compared to LACs or boarding schools, but the teaching & expectations at National Universities is/are outstanding. Private National Universities tend to have smaller classes than do public National Universities.[/quote]

No way athletes at Michigan are held to the same standard as athletes at Williams.
