[quote=Anonymous]I graduated about a decade ago and am married to another alum. I'm still involved in the College as an alum interviewer and with my class Dartmouth College Fund committee.

I think the best thing I can say about my time there is that if my DD (currently only a toddler) were to be accepted in the future I would be thrilled and delighted for her to attend.

I was very much a part of the Greek life scene and extremely involved in my sorority. I was never hazed, nor did I ever haze anyone. While there is indeed a drinking culture at Dartmouth, I think the same can be said for almost any college. I certainly found it to be prevalent at all the schools where I visited friends during my college years.

Overall, I benefitted greatly from the D-plan as it allowed me to apply to selective internships during terms when other students would be taking classes, so I got to have those experiences without having to compete with the whole universe of college students. Also, sophomore summer is probably one of the times of my younger years that I look back on most fondly and it also gives you an opportunity to be in a leadership position in campus organizations fairly early in your college career.

It sounds like Dartmouth would be a great fit for your DD.  Congrats to her!

I would highly recommend that she attend the Dimensions program if she's able to, I know many of my friends said it sealed their decision to matriculate.

(Likely letters aren't new. My H got one back in the late 90s, I did ED.) [/quote]
