        Because it is where the kids of the wealthy and famous network, not because it provides a superior education to a public university.

        See above- my personal memories at Mount Holyoke include being awed by the excellence of classes, and I know from observation that Wellesley demanded excellence, and that the students were both able and happy to comply

        Oh, I am sure they were. Like Donnie Trump at Penn. I would like to match SAT scores with him. Look, you may have had a nice time, and there may have been smart people there, but the importance was in networking.

        To some, the importance is in education. “Nice time” is a tad dismissive.

        Well La, di da. 😀 I had to take a bus to go to college, could not afford room and board. Ended up with BA and MA degrees, served as an army officer in Vietnam, and am the author, co-author or editor of 21 books. My old man did not quite make it though 8th grade.

        Hey male who didn’t go to Wellesley & yet has an opinion about those who actually did: W alum here, wasn’t rich & neither were my classmates. Most took out loans & had part-time jobs & W was generous w/grants. So alums give back generously to pay it forward & attract the best.

        It’s not an opinion that you clearly don’t know anything about what you didn’t experience. It’s a fact that you’re simply incorrect about Wellesley being filled with little rich girls; it’s not the 1950s anymore.

        Let's see the 7 Sisters get down to the basics...at least 50 % diversity within 5 years. Persons accepted on merit before acceptance on being able to PAY.

        My daughter is a rising senior at MHC (once she finishes all her junior year papers this week). She’s so happy there. Amazing education and huge diversity of students-not all rich or white.

        A Mount Holyoke grad convinced me to give women’s colleges a chance. They are class acts all the way.

        Wellesley is a women's college. The school accepts cisgender women, transgender women, non-binary people assigned female at birth, and transgender men (although the school affirms its commitment to women's education).
