More NY Times Link Love

Excellent story today in the New York Times regarding Berea College in Kentucky.  The focus of the story is the debate on whether or not school endowments have grown too large and what percentage they pay out.  True story- Berea was one of the schools I looked at when I was in high school (waaaaay back in 1986).  My other schools were Ohio State, Kenyon, Anderson University, MedCentral College of Nursing, Boston University, and George Washington University.  My final three were OSU, Anderson, and MedCentral and I, like an idiot, chose Ohio State (as a Political Science major) which delayed my entering into nursing (which I love) by about five years.

Big step for me as a parent, I am taking Becky on her first college visit this week, to Kent State.  It is exciting and frightening all at the same time.

In the comments (if you would), where did you apply and wind up going to college or, if you didn’t go, why not.  I love learning more about my readers.
