<p>I am surprised to see many Bates parents still participating actively in this forum requesting information after the admissions process is long behind them. Having a window into what they are concerned about is nice for those of us with students interested in the school. But is there is any forum besides cc for Bates parents, maybe through a private social network page or list serv? The LAC where our S attends has a thriving private moderated list serv where parents share suggestions and ideas freely, frequently and without needing to provide their names. Does Bates have anything like that?</p>
<p>Not that I know of. I’d welcome a closed Facebook page for parents but don’t know of one. My older son’s college does have a FB page just for parents which I’ve appreciated!</p>
