<p>Bucknell University so far has been a great place for my D who sounds very much like yours. The soriority ended up being a great place for my shy daughter to meet alot of nice girls who she never would have met otherwise. She also plays in the band and has joined other clubs as well. Bucknell does a great job in orientation and in the dorms to get the kids to meet. There are many non’alcoholic events to keep her busy as well.
I agree that the smaller LAC’s are a good option. Other places my daughters have liked are Middlebury, Bowdoin, Pomona and Williams which seem similar in their efforts to offer alot of activities to keep the community feel.</p>
