[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spouse and I are grads...

- Kenyon is a solid "B" school charging "A-" tuition.
- Halcyon campus. 
- Mixed name reputation. Returning to DC after graduation, I was disappointed by how many people gave me blank stares. [b]That was a few decades ago, [/b]however.
- Re finance careers, I am aware of bankers, portfolio managers and even a Carlyle Group money man from my year, but it's not as easy a swim as it would be from an IVY or tier-1 NE SLAS. Def major in Econ and get NYC internships.
- Graduates with a good attitude and good connections can pretty much accomplish whatever they set out to do. Even write "Seabiscuit". Helpful if a classmate's parent helps open doors (I saw that several times)
- Desperate for more black students, but so are higher status schools in locations that are more appealing to them
- Enough about E.L. Doctorow, Olof Palme, R.B Hayes, Paul Newman, and Allison Janney. Endlessly rehashing them reminds us that the best schools have hundreds of famous alums, not five. (OK, there are more than five, but still...)
- At nearly $300k, I don't think the value prop is there for most humanities majors
