Scripps

[magickpotion]

Hello! Well, I've heard that the highest retention rate Scripps has had in the past 10 years or so was 70something%, which is a lot less high than other schools that are supposed to be of its caliber. That means over 20% of students end up leaving. I also heard a crazy story by a student here (here being Mount Holyoke) that she visited Scripps and learned about some creepy professor that dresses up in a disguise and gets his students to perform sex acts on him at parties. Granted, the student I heard this from isn't necessarily the most informed person in the world, but she says she actually witnessed this happening accidentally when she visited.

I see. I applied to Mt. Holyoke too, but Scripps has better weather. We'll just see where I get in I guess. Thanks for your help!

Yes, I bet Scripps does have better weather. I would just be extreeeeeeemely disturbed and angered to hear that a professor is being such a perverted psycho to attempt to take advantage of his students that way, so I thought it was incredibly pertinent to bring up.

Good luck!
