People applying to Reed must be less anxious than the rest of CC

<p>As a Reedie, I can assure you that we do not use drugs and party every night due to (as Francaisalamatt said) being cooped up studying during the week. Unless there are papers due on the weekend, there are often events of some sort going on fridays and saturdays. People may be smoking and drinking there, but no one will pressure you because we all respect each others’ values.</p>

<p>My D is applying RD. ED would be nice, but we’re going to be comparing $ awards. When we visited, it was clear that the school was creme de la creme / very serious about academics. I believe that the drug references are overated. How can one manage a heavy load with a foggy mind? Highly improbable.</p>
