What other information about your son might be helpful for us to know?

 

He manages his incurable disease.

He manages his acne which cannot be alleviated with the best meds because of the meds he takes for Ulcerative Colitis.

He will not kill even the smallest insect.

He lives in a home that has 60+ years of Disney leadership experience under the roof, resulting in a lifetime of daily leadership and life-skills tutoring.

A lifetime at Disney and Disney Institute prepared me, unknowingly, to launch my own business. A lifetime at Disney and Disney Institute adds huge credibility as a solo entrepreneur.

Are there institutions to which you hope that your son will apply?

 

Yes.

The one he feels is his best fit.

i did suggest he make sure it has an amazing cafeteria.

Four years is a long time to settle for average (or below average) nutrition, when you are launching your adult career.

How do you feel about your son’s readiness to take responsibility

Logan Pass
July 31, 2018, two weeks before starting Senior year of High School. Our Family plus two of his HS buddies.

 

How do you feel about your son’s readiness to take responsibility for researching college options, applying for admission, and handling college work?

 

About as close to perfect as a parent could hope to feel. He visited Bryant, Brown, Bucknell, Muhlenberg, George Washington, Goucher, Johns Hopkins, Rollins, and UCF.

Next week we visit Goucher for the third time (and fourth tour). This will be Cheryl’s first visit.

We travel often for business but on a Family trip to Baltimore, i asked him to research some local colleges and schedule tours.

Goucher’s cafeteria food, new and innovative freshman dorms, a new student center/cafeteria complex under construction, a deep sense of human diversity, proximity to Northeastern cities, and National awards for campus innovation all made his decision easy.

As i always tell him, “The best time to look for another option is when you don’t need to.”

He instinctively feels Goucher is it.

In a world where unlimited choices can paralyze our decision making, he is certain and unwavering.

Perhaps it was the upperclassman dorm option that requires a signed contract to not do drugs or alcohol – he thinks that is an incredible offering.

Values and commitment.

He’s following his gut.

This is what great leaders do.
