<p>@intparent Seriously… Thanks for sharing! A question about your niece-in-law… Did she seem to also enjoy the social aspect of Richmond? I’m hearing and researching lots of college reviews, specifically about greek life. I know many of you guys have mentioned that only 27% are part of sorority, but my parents are extremely conservative, very Christiany and are concerned about sending their daughter who’s been brought up in 2 very third-world countries and South Korea, and has gone to Christian schools half of her life… Do you think there’s a way for me to convince them? Or is life at Richmond really like what some of the reviews say… I mentioned in this thread previously too, but I’m a VERY international student who will more likely succeed in a more diversity-accepting culture than a majority of the student body who are very “narrow-minded” as the reviews strongly suggest. (“You WILL become an alcoholic if you come here. Most people drive out to the football stadium, drink in the parking lot and go home to take a nap before they start drinking for the night.”) (" The school is a glorified boarding school for rich kids NOT college. If you are thinking about coming here it is probably not what you think it is. Ensure that you are making the right choice.") I know I shouldn’t be relying solely on these negative student-reviews and I also firmly believe that there are a truck load of awesome qualities that Richmond possess (that’s why I’m applying!) But these issues (greek life, lack of diversity…), especially to my parents, are sensitive ones. OR! Maybe I’m just too paranoid about another transition… A big one! Thanks a lot… Especially because I really don’t have anyone around me to help me with collegapps… :)</p>
