Dear Dr. Brennan,
I hear that about high school. Of course, I also hear that these are the best years of my life, which I really hope isn't true. For one thing, who wants the best years of their life to be over when they're 18? And for another, the people who tell me this are usually the sort of loser who's still wearing a letter jacket and a high school ring and remembering his glory days on the basketball team (or cheerleading squad) into his late twenties. And I so don't want to be that person.
I know I should say climate doesn't matter so much so long as it's a good school, but after spenting part of what was supposedly spring in Vermont last year, I'm really not sure I'm up for freezing through four winters. On the other hand, there are an annoying number of good schools in cold places, which seems odd planning to me. Maybe the idea is that it's too cold to do anything but stay in and study?

I'll look into Northwestern, though.
