You need thicker skin!

Sure they can...but there is a PP who spreads the same story all over DCUM. They are very weird.

Why is it a problem for you? That’s the weird thing. Why is it hard for you to grasp a kid or kids didn’t actually vibe ND. So weird that you kept mental notes of previous posts.

Yes, the location is horrible. South Bend is depressing AF.

Agree — I wouldn’t want to live there but the campus experience is amazing. Gorgeous campus and great residential life.

I think it is all so very subjective. My kid didn't like the campus so much. I think it was a combination of the cold windy weather in April when we were there and the dark old architecture. Like I said, it would appeal to some and not to others.

lol ok. Ridiculous.

Not really. Just because it was for you doesn't mean it's for everyone.

The kid can say he doesn’t like the weather, sure. But that’s not the campus. By that definition every college that gets a lot of snow has a shitty campus.

The architecture isn’t old. Anyone who went to ND as recently as 20 years ago would barely recognize the campus today. That’s how new it is.

You can throw a lot of shade at ND for a lot of reasons, but once you start saying it doesn’t have a beautiful campus it’s clear you have an axe to grind.

Grow up. What axe to grind? My kid was admitted. We liked the school enough, but my kid chose another school in which he liked the campus a lot better as he found that campus "beautiful". Get over yourself.

Methinks it’s your kid who needs to grow up. “It’s a gloomy day, boo hoo I don’t like the campus.”

lol c'mon. It wasn't just the campus. The engineering school was greatly lagging compared to his other choices. But, yes the campus was not for my kid. Whatever. Like I said, to each his or her own.

Then why did he apply?

+1

The kid hated the campus, hated the town, and thought the engineering school sucked. So, naturally, he applied to the school. And he got in, of course, because Notre Dame is known for accepting applicants with no real interest in the school . . .

Something doesn’t pass the smell test.

The PP's kid was attended an accepted student's event in April to help him decide. That said, the PP is weird. They post this on every single Notre Dame thread (or ND mentioned). Same story...kid visited and didn't like the campus and the weather was bad.

No idea what you are talking about. Have never posted that. Some of you people are really out there. lol
