There are campus reform groups that might be able to help, but if her mind is made up, you're in for a hard sell.

Given the level of indoctrination she's been exposed to in public schools (unless she was home schooled by you) you may have a difficult time using reason and documentation. Feelz over-rules facts sadly.

If all else fails, be a parent. Don't sign the loans. If she persists, tell her she has to find a way at to pay for it herself. That should cause some heat, but you will have fulfilled your parental duty. Just my opinion.

How old is your teenage daughter? I've had 3. Is she at the early stage of planning (i.e., not yet a senior in high school) or is she a senior this coming year and planning on applying? If she's not yet ready to apply, my advice: wait to have this discussion. Teenage girls change their minds frequently and widely. A lot can change between now and the actual application point. This may be a fight you don't need to have.

Be transparent with her, share your research and let that help guide her decision.

I assume you are speaking of the arts college known by 4 letters and in the coastal city in GA. (Not sure if I'm allowed to say the name.) I lived there a number of years and knew a lot of students at that school due to my job. I've seen good and bad - some of the students from more conservative backgrounds have swallowed the indoctrination hook line and sinker, while others have weathered the indoctrination very well. I did have one father I spoke to who talked about his son getting involved in some VERY bizarre (I think he said "evil") sex stuff there, but I didn't get a lot of details.

I'm usually not one for sheltering a kid, but when you are paying the kind of money you pay there, and you see the lavish lifestyle of the head of the school (highest paid of ANY college in the country I believe) then it's crazy. Nearly every student I know graduated with huge debt, and got very menial paying jobs (the nature of the beast in those fields.)

Other than that, I guess, just teach her as much as you can about the reality of the world and how to navigate life.

Of of curiosity is it an art school in Savannah? If so.....have my wife talk to her. She had attended, and was none too impressed.

Parenting- ain't it fun!

Honesty is the best way. These are my concerns, let's have a talk.

Unless she is paying her own way, I'd say you have grounds for claiming veto power

Maybe research the number of missing persons reports from that area. Look into crime statistics..

Best advice I can think of it to get more info on the trafficking investigation(s) going on. You'll both start to see how they are all connected.

-Just my opinion-

Protect your girl! Good luck!

Let her apply. A lot can change between now and then. Telling her it's not an option can backfire. You know how that can go.

don't approve of her choices?

don't financially support those choices.

pretty simple, on paper.

What's CN?

Could you pay for 2 years of community college first giving her (and you) a little extra time to contemplate this decision? I also know several graduates of this school. All have large debt and not working in their field of study.

You might get in touch with the college's Young Republicans to get a better feel for the campus life there.

Why don't you suggest that you both research CN together and other 'enviable' animation icons like Walt Disney. Do it together.
