I realize I'll be branded for life on GC for writing this, but I would love for my daughter to consider Hillsdale College in Michigan. I don't think it will be her cup of tea as she is more of the artsy, dreamer type. But she would get a great education there.
I did the Big Ten thing and loved it. I was so ready to get onto a large campus and carve my own niche after being in a smaller high school. However, I do find the smaller liberal arts colleges really intriguing and would want her to explore both options. Big schools and smaller schools both have a lot to offer. It just depends on what you want.
She's an only child so I would really like to see her find a sorority home and sisters through that experience. Unfortunately there is only one Tri Delta chapter in our state and the university falls into the "over my dead body" category. I've already resigned myself to the fact that it's pretty unlikely she will be a Tri Delta someday.
