[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it just the one pp who barges in on any Boston area college thread to school every one on Boston city limits? So we can only talk about BU and NEU? We all know the group of colleges others are referring to without pulling out the zip code map. 
BTW, HC has a T stop which is nice. [/quote]

The point is, going to BC is no more like going to school in Boston than going to Solano CC is like going to school in SF[/quote]

BC works too. It’s not really in the city. [/quote]

PP:  I chuckled at this because I’ve thought this as well.[/quote]
This is such a weird flex. So only BU and NEU are the only schools you’re referring to? Won’t Harvard be surprised. 
FWIW, my kid’s dorm this year at BC is within Boston city limits. Last year her dorm was in Chestnut Hill. Next year she’ll likely live in Brighton — all within a mile radius. [/quote]

BC is a PWI in a predominately white upper middle class neighborhood. That’s not the experience that many kids expect when they say they want to go to school in a city.  Yes, think more BU, NYU, GT, Cal, USF.  Diverse schools in diverse urban settings.  My son selected Boston as one of the cities where he wanted to go to school, applied to BU, didn’t apply to BC.[/quote]
So, no Harvard or MIT either - not Boston enough ![/quote]
