"I just graduated from Carlbrook in July 2005, and honsetly, coming on this website and reading your replys about Carlbrook made me want to vomit. This school was the best thing that has ever happened to me and my family. I found out how important I am, and how what I was doing to my body, my heart, my mind was against everything that is simply true about me. Carlbrook does not beleive in fixing anybody, because they beleive in the theory that no one is broken, it is true. It is not a place where they lock kids up, it is a place where lost kids can find out what they want out of this life, to apologize to themselves for betraying love, truth and their hearts. This school has been my home for the past 17 months, it has been the most powerful experience. Yes, a lot of the student are in charge of things like a student body government, a committee where older students are bigs brothers and big sisters to new students who feel so completly and utterly uncomfortable, there are prefects where the students are making sure the dorms are emotionally safe. They dont care about the money, that is why it works, they put the students first and that should be the point of all therapeutic schools. I wasnt planning on going to college before Carlbrook, I had gotten kicked out of my previous boarding school and was majorly addicted to drugs. Now i am here, i have been sober for 20 months, i have made the best friends i have ever had, friends that are based off of pure truth and love and what feeds my soul, not drugs or boyfriends or superficial nonsense, and in September I will be attending one of the best colleges in the Country. All because I simply trusted for a moment and let my family love me, and loved my family and let others hold me while i cried and danced with my inner child. I realized that everything that i have been searching for has been within me, i have let my mom be my mom and my dad be my dad because i understand how important i am to this world. Carlbrook made all this possible for me to find and discover. Honsetly people that bash this place are just afraid of letting their children go, who dont beleive in going back and facing what eats them alive everyday, people that dont trust...But i understand it is hard and many families think this way before Carlbrook. Its all about love and individual strength.

Now now... come on, people. Be nice.
For one, I think it's great that you are going to college. That's good. Sometimes these schools can put us in better situations after we graduate. That was my experience with RMA, and I'll never put it down for that, even though the school was totally screwed up.
However, a word of warning. Be wary of trying to use what you have learned at this school and apply it to the real world. You may be disappointed, and you may alienate potential friends by trying to act the way you did in college like you did at Carlbrook. My advice for your freshman year of college, watch what other people do, pay attention to how other people behave in social situations, and REFRAIN from judging them based off of what you have learned at your old school, because it may be incorrect. Just as long as it doesn't do any harm to you personally, keep an open mind. (But protect yourself too, obviously, I mean, don't be stupid, you know?)
I know you have talked about how wonderful it was to get in touch with your inner child. Now it is time to move on and focus on the outer adult. (And have fun, too. I mean, this IS college, after all!)

Holy crap, Tim Brace. He was running RMA when I was there. I wonder if he's still as totally hyper as he was back then.

Oh ok, so Price is dean of faculty and Brace is dean of students. What's the difference, exactly? I thought dean of students had more direct interaction with the students.
