I must say, THANK YOU ALL. The feedback I have received from you all has been incredibly valuable. It's a nerve-wracking experience to go through this process with your first born child (and a daughter no less for all the obvious concerns), but I really thank you all for the insights. 'gate, I appreciate your thoughts on the education program -- the head of the department really made a strong impression on us, and I agree, it's hard to do better than NY State for teachers.

I think we might go back in the fall for a football game, and perhaps take in a hockey game in the winter (although the Cornell game would be a tough ticket). One thing I forgot to add was how charming I thought the town of Hamilton was - yes, it's small, but it looks fun too!

I took an informal poll of the Fordham guys on the message board and their praise for Colgate and Colgate people was unanimous --- said Colgate grads they've interacted with are the best and well prepared for the work world as any school in the country.

btw if Hamilton is out polling Colgate, there is something really wrong with that based on what we saw.

thanks very much - I'm going to encourage my daughter to apply early decision and keep my fingers crossed. thanks so much again!
