Good to hear from you oldbatesie. I’m sorry to hear this news, lots of distress and disruption seemingly happening at Haverford. Have you seen this thread?

Haverford college bullying issues

I am a first year at Haverford and there is a significant bullying problem. For me it started when the strike started. It has continued. I haven’t even experienced the worst of it, others have had it so much worse. I’m scared to even walk around and I just want to keep my exposure limited. I reported the bullying to several deans and nothing was done. My crime that enraged the bullies was just wanting to attend class. At this point the bullies have taken over the school. I wouldn’t recommend anyone coming here unless you want others telling you how to act, what to say, and when you can and can’t attend class because it doesn’t support their views. I’m disappointed that I used Haverford as my early decision. I wish I could go back and change that. I really thought I found the right school for me at the time.

Oberlin has also chosen to not play spring sports, while the rest of the conference is, AFAIK.

My D is at a NESCAC and it’s not looking like they will have official sports this spring either, her sport is fall and spring, so as a soph, she will have missed 3 of 4 seasons. It’s certainly a sad and curious decision for these schools to not play sports, when as you say, many colleges are playing, as well as high schools.

Good luck to your D, I hope that she can find the strength to persevere.
