[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's hard for everybody to make friends at Ivies. I just toured Yale with my son and one of the first things I noticed was that almost everyone was alone. Walking alone, eating alone, studying alone. In the 2.5 hours I was on campus, I saw literally only three groups of friends. It was strange, and kind of disheartening. [/quote] Funny you should say this. We noticed the same phenomenon at Swarthmore. After that, my child started rating schools based (in part) upon whether anyone greeted the tour guide as we walked around campus. There really are different cultures at different schools. This is one factor that those of us who stress "fit" are referring to.[/quote]
