[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, my kid applied to both Richmond and Tulane and ultimately chose Tulane. She reported that a real benefit to Tulane is that because there are lots of social opportunities, you never have to feel like you HAVE to attend the ONE thing happening on campus. This allowed her to focus on school when she needed to knowing there would be parties/outings when she had time for it. She had a terrific first year and really appreciated the balance between studying and having lots of fun.[/quote]

Do you or your daughter think many schools have one thing going on on campus? I imagine zero schools are like this, even if they have a major event that most attend, there are still choices. Take Mardi Gras: I imagine most kids attend it at some point, but kids that don't want to still have things to do.[/quote]

+1 for Tulane. For the record there isn't one Mardi Gras parade, there's like 10 over the span of several days. DD would pick one or two then have the sense to sit out the rest. She's learned to balance school with her sorority and socializing. Going into her senior year now she's kinda over the social stuff and is focusing on doing her capstone. She's working in IB this summer.  [/quote]
