<p>S turned down Wake, George Wash, Lafayette, Delaware, St. Joe's, Fairfield, LaSalle (full tuition scholarship), and Wagner to attend Richmond. Thanks Spiders05 and others on this forum for the assistance in answering questions that S and I had. By the way, the rational set forth in a prior post by Spiders05 for the reasons given by "northerners" to attend Richmond are essentially the basis for S's decision.</p>
<p>Congrats to you and your son on becoming a Spider! I'm assuming the decision was really made during his visit last Saturday. When we have weather like that, it's a hard place to turn down. Again, congrats!</p>
<p>so the northerners are worried about it seeming too southern and the southerners are worried about it seeming too northern!!</p>
<p>Ha ha the joke's on all of us</p>
<p>Congrats to your son- He and my daughter will be classmates!!</p>
<p>Welcome to RICHMOND!</p>
<p>Daughter just made her decision: there's at least one more Spider in our house!</p>
<p>She turned down NYU, UNC-Chapel Hill and (finally) Boston U.</p>
<p>Welcome to Richmond!</p>
