<p>Yeah, and they’ve been at that game for a long time! I am, by far, the youngest of three kids, and my pack rat mother kept almost all of my older siblings’ college recruiting materials when they were applying in the early to mid-90’s. WashU is very well-represented in that very large box of papers… as are RPI and Case Western, though it is pretty difficult to lure kids to a tech-heavy school who aren’t already interested in that sort of environment. </p>
<p>The funny thing is that my mom’s reluctance to throw anything sentimental away has given me a huge array of historical info about colleges. I can look up the tuition and average entering stats for almost any major college and university during like the 92-93 and 95-96 academic years. For whatever that is worth, ha ha.</p>
