Future, not too hot.


Funny thing is there are lots of responders to you not one. Evanston very hot actually:

NU one of the top universities in the country. In fact there is a VERY short list of schools with equal or better academics and locations ... To each their own, but you ought to find another avenue to vent your frustrations.

Which leads to a broader topic: If what your daughter wanted in a school was great academics, a big sports scene and a competitive lacrosse program (let's say upper half of whatever conference they are in), what are some of the places you would look at. What are the pros and cons of each. Anyone with daughters who have had either particularly good or bad experiences at certain places that you could share? Thx
