My fairly conservative daughter is considering going to one of these schools to play softball. I know that the academics at all of these schools are excellent.
What I really want to know is what the recruiting brochures don't tell you.....
* How safe the school is, (if there is barbed wire over the wrought iron fence covered by 1 inch chain link),
* If a fairly conservative girl from the north can fit in,
* How difficult it is to get to the school from the airport,...............
You know, stuff like that. There haven't been any students from her high school who have gone there and the counselors don't know much about them since they don't know anyone who has ever gone, either.
We've been to visit Spring Hill and Birmingham Southern. We don't know much about Hendrix, other than it's a college that "changes lives". Of course, I think that ALL colleges change lives, but that's just me....
Anyway, whatever information you can provide I would appreciate very much.
Thank you in advance.
