We didn't look further south but also College of Charleston, Sewanee, I'm sure there are more.



I don’t think any of these would be very interesting to a biracial, liberal (she said it twice) urban sophisticate who likes to snowboard and rock climb. Not one.


Actually, W&L would be a good fit.

Lol, ask a stupid question, get stupid answers. I'm just as ashamed about the poster you replied to as the OP. How can they not see this is the most cringe post ever?

Pretty sure your son will enjoy most of the SLAC mentioned. Lafayette and Bucknell would be great. Same goes for Richmond and Denison.

I’m not seething, I just think the number of adjectives used to describe this kid is funny. It’s just a funny post, that’s all.

It depends on what you mean by liberal, OP. If he's a Clinton Democrat, most of the schools others have mentioned would work. Bucknell, Colgate, etc. If he's woke, he should stick with his original list, and you should stop kidding yourself that he's also "cool."

Nice additions.

Colby, Colgate and Bucknell

You will find similar kids at Williams, Tufts, Amherst, Bates, Wes, too, but they will be the recruited athletes at those schools and being on a sports team is somewhat like a “fraternity” at those schools.
