The year our son graduated (2015) was the first year Choate stopped publishing names-to-colleges in the graduation program and no mention as students accepted their diplomas. Choate was quite adamant that matriculation results are not the focus of a Choate education. During college info weekend as parents filed in to take their seats in the auditorium for the opening session, a silent “Where did they go to College?” trivia game looped on the screen—all famous names, not a single famous college. The message couldn’t have been more blatant.
There have been many (many!) repetitive discussions about matriculation lists in this forum over the years, nothing really new to add. Here’s one about Deerfield that covered a lot of ground about why some schools stopped publishing more granular data.
