[quote=Anonymous]I don't think the tour guide or admissions people should be the sole determining factor. But it is all about marketing, and if they choose to put bad people out there, that says a lot about them. Most schools have kids apply to be tour guides and not all are accepted. We had universally very good tour guides at the wide variety of schools we toured except one who wasn't great but who perfectly represented our pre-existing negative concerns about a school, so it was confirming. I know of one admissions officer at a school who is particularly bad. Again, families aren't turning down the school specifically because of this person as your kid will never encounter them once they start there, but the fact that the school chooses this person to represent them does not reflect well. We have multiple friends who interviewed with this person and notified parents at the school about how bad it was and those parents reported it back to the school.[/quote]
