[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dickinson and Lawrence were lackluster. [/quote] We actually really were impressed by Dickinson unexpectedly. [b]I think so much depends on when you tour and whether kids are walking around, the weather [/b]- I took my kid to the school we were hoping he would like on a good weather day (we cancelled a previous trip when I realized it would rain)[/quote] +1 Last spring break, DD saw Allegheny college in a rainstorm and thought it was blah and two days later saw Dickinson on a sunny Spring day with all the trees in bloom and thought it was great. We definitely talked about separating out the weather impressions from specific aspects of what the school offers. We also had earlier done a summer tour at another college and learned not to do that again -- nobody around and blazing hot. Not an accurate read on the vibe of the school.[/quote]
