[quote=Anonymous]Thank you, OP, for your first clarion song of common, if not universal, ache of parents whose kids' college options are not what we hoped for, after 12 years of not enough sleep, and so much stress for them. I have taken many long walks down quiet back roads the past week, and your words, OP, have consoled me again and again, just as hearing the pre-historic shrieks of Sandhill Cranes helped me in my homesickness, as an 18-year-old away from home for the first time... I hope your son is happy at CASE or wherever he ends up, and that he will not be irredeemably homesick, as I was. I hope he makes dear friends, and thrives, feeling that his studies are leading him into a magical world of uncharted thought....I wish this for him, and all the kids facing college after this brutal admissions year... ...and tonight is Ivy night. The tears and envy could propel momentarily to the moon....I wish it wasn't so...Best of luck to all. [/quote]
