It's such a beautiful place. Maybe they'll eventually sell it to someone who wants to run a Christian university.
How is your daughter liking Davidson so far?
We don't hear from her as often as we would like (ha!) but we know she gets along swimmingly with her roommate, a very nice Latina girl from El Paso. The girls on her hall are also nice, she says it's a "laid back hall". There are other Japanese anime' and RPG fans on the hall, so she's pleased about that. The food is good, she's found a job working as a techie in the college theater (something she did all through high school), she's taking karate for phys ed (she's really an aikidoka but that's not offered). She likes her biology prof (he's "a dear") but bio is really really hard, her Spanish prof is something of a wild man but very funny, and I haven't heard about the other courses yet. She and her roomie found a local church to attend Mass, she says it's very nice and the music is good, her only complaint is that the priest officiates v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y and Mass takes an hour and a half . . . she's used to Monsignor who practically has a stopwatch in his hand, if Mass goes over an hour heads will roll!
So, all in all, I'd say things are good in Davidson. (Makes me want to go back to school, except I was never good at Biology and I can't speak a word of Spanish.)
