My daughter is thinking about applying to UU for undergrad...

Other than the mediocre education and the commuter-school vibe, my real concern is that she could meet some seemingly-normal guy who would come to every family gathering in red and corrupt my future grandchildren with his misguided ideology.

I may be forced to threaten to withhold financial assistance if she gets serious about going there.

She's a great student, just nervous about going too far away, I think.
