<p>coureur....loved reading your report and most of all to hear how happy your D is thus far at Harvard and all the friends she has made and how she found the perfect fit. We also just went to parent weekend a week ago with our freshman D at Brown and had a wonderful time as well. Like you, we saw an improv troupe and many excellent a capella groups and I felt like I was reading a report of OUR visit for a minute, lol. Also it was fun to read your impressions of Harvard. I lived in Cambridge for four years and I also went to grad school at Harvard so you were in my old stomping grounds. Sounds like everything was pretty positive all the way around for you guys.</p>
<p>Your D's comment about her fellow students is interesting. My D said of her fellow Brown students...."they're brilliant but know how to have fun." Your report reminded me of my D also cause she says that her fellow peers in her dorm have become a family and I cannot believe how many friends she has already. Isn't it great when your child is thrilled with their choice and enjoying all these new experiences? I couldn't be happier about how it has worked out for my child and it is a nice feeling to read of many other kids who are having the time of their lives in their freshman year of college. </p>
<p>Thanks for sharing.
