[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is your kid the "sorority princess" or "captain of the cheerleader squad" archetype? If so, then Vandy is a perfect fit. If she's introverted and not a social bee, then she might find it a frustrating place. Vanderbilt has always been known for having a very hierarchical social structure akin to a high school. Greek Life is a huge deal on campus for white kids, and students are sorted into specific social status lanes rather quickly. [/quote] This is a very outdated view of Vanderbilt. It's a lot nerdier than people assume. And a lot less Greek. I think what's feeding this perception is that the Paltrow kid goes there and that gets mean girl social media noise. It's generally a school for smart, ambitious, and extroverted students. It certainly does not have a "hierarchical social structure." It does have some rich kids but so does every top 20 school.
