Guidance from Above, cont.

Today, I went back to the guidance department and compiled a list of twenty schools to check out. The list is:

• George Washington, which is in Washington, D.C., appropriately, and has a picture of Michele Obama on its homepage for unknown reasons. Also, 25% of their incoming freshmen have SAT scores that are lower than mine- when I was twelve. I was such a smart kid.
• John's Hopkins, which I'm absolutely terrified of because I heard that their pre-med kids are so competitive that they vandalize the library textbooks to keep their classmates from using them.
• Villanova, whose Roman Catholic University things makes me nervous, although they do have the same school colors as Paperclip does, so I could recycle that logo-wear that I never bought.
• Yale, or New Haven, as Nick Carroway likes to call it.
• Princeton makes me think of the rape case, which was when I first heard of it.
• Carnegie Mellon, which also has Michelle Obama on its homepage.
• Cornell, which I think has co-ed bathrooms, although I might have it mixed up with another school on that count. If the bathrooms are co-ed, does that mean that they don't have urinals? Or, well, yeah....
• URochester is hosting an international conference bringing Robin Hood scholars to the school, which is, really, kind of awesome.
• Tufts, which for some strange reason I thought was named after President Taft, the really fat one who couldn't fit in a bathtub.
• Amherst, which is not to be confused with UMassAmherst.
• Brown, where HERMIONE goes to school.
• UVA, because if you pronounce it phonetically, it sounds like saying oooo-ahhhh with a Romanian accent, like mullet-boy
• College of William and Mary, which is the baby formed by immaculate conception after Mary and Joseph broke up.
• Haverford, whose homepage reminds me of an AT&T add
• Swarthmore, which I can't pronounce.
• MIT, and if I get into this one, Dr. Verona will take me to both lunch AND dinner, and he'll pay for both, which means that it's really, really unlikely.
• Hamilton, where 40% of the students come from private schools
• Harvard, which my grandpa will chip in for if I get in.
• UPenn, where knowledge is without boundaries according to the slogan dotted all over the information pages.
• Dartmouth, which I already visited.
