Elon- it's a nice option for those wanting the feel of a SLAC that has nicely evolved into a mid-sized university.

The school does a great job conveying a sense of belonging. Work is challenging but not overwhelming and I get a sense she will grow intellectually and emotionally there.


I love W&M.
My kid is a junior this year and hoping for this experience too.

Smartest, kindest, funniest colleague I ever had was an Elon grad - also gay and active in LGBTQ org. Congrats to your DS and GL with med school!


there’s quite a surprising number of queer kids at elon

University of South Carolina. DC adores it.

I wasn't sold because I'm more of a prestige seeker than DC is, and DC got into much better schools (UMD, Michigan) but the merit aid beat out the others, and time has proven DC made the right choice academically, career-wise, and financially.
