#1: Pretty sure the common response is “oh.. Wellesley?.. is that in Connecticut?”, NOT the other way around.
#2: I’m loathe to point out that she is from Stuy (my HS).
#3: ”Socially, going to a women’s college means … taking a bus to other schools on the weekends to do unmentionable things with aforementioned sports teams.” ho ho ho.
#4: I don’t understand the purpose of this article. Is it just to put down single-sex (specifically women’s) institutions? There are benefits to both Wellesley and Wesleyan. The way I see it, this is like comparing apples and oranges. Thank you, disappointed Wesleyan alum for pointing out that: “College is such a unique experience for each individual, one that cannot be completely understood by anyone other than yourself. For the author to carelessly assume that because SHE does not see the value of a womens’ colleges they are thus unnecessary is naive, and frankly quite arrogant.”
