<p>We went on a couple of tours where the guide promised that “this would be the worst room you could get” - it was typically small and undistinguished. Then they would talk about the other themed dorms etc.</p>
<p>One of my favorite tours was at Bennington during the summer. There was no one on campus but the tour guide took us to a classroom and had us sit down while he explained the school’s teaching philosophy, to a dorm and we sat in the lounge while he explained the various choices, to the student center/dining hall etc. I was ready to sign up then and there but unfortunately the student in question was not as thrilled…</p>
