Stanford a dream school? Not so much in Manhattan, Kansas.

Well, maybe for one kid?

Haha, good point. At my high school, if you were going to college--which was not even close to a given--the likely choices were KSU or KU. Only one other member of my senior class of 400 went to college in California.

I had the same experience essentially.  Replace Iowa State and Iowa for KSU and KU and also, not one other person in my class of 650 went to college in California.  :-[
