[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been thinking a “midwestern nice” vibe would be good for DC. Any insight into which school might be best for a shy, sensitive, high stats kid?[/quote] Unless shy kid is intense about social justice, I’d avoid Grinnell & Macalaster. Check out Lawrence, Kalamazoo, & Hope College (underrated school in Holland, MI). [/quote] Interesting that you're advising the student to avoid two of the best colleges in the region in favor of also rans. Grinnell is a great landing spot for a "shy, sensitive, high stats kid" -- it's tailored made for a kid like that, in fact. [/quote] Bringing social justice up as something to maybe avoid in favor of an overtly religious college is weird enough, but calling these other colleges "also rans" isn't really advancing the conversation either. I would be delighted to have my child attend what others describe as "also rans." [/quote]
