<p>It’s silly. One D goes to a regional university that has around 12,000 undergraduates. The other D will attend a university with over 40,000. Both are great schools for each daughter individually. You have to find the right fit FOR YOU. Big schools offer things that small schools often don’t. Small schools offer things that big schools often don’t. No biggie. Personal preference. I’d have a talk with my D to let her know to let some of this outside influence roll off her back, and to make a decision that seems right for her and her parents (the ones that will be paying). Nod and smile.</p>
