Except for myself and a few other cousins who were also born too late, all of the women in my mom's family attended Bennet at some point from the '50s through the '70s (my mom actually attended Bennet with her own niece who was barely a week younger). I think Pat Ratchet was quite right: from what I've been told, it was very much a "Mona Lisa Smile," Buffy/Muffy/Cookie sort of school for affluent girls to learn how to land equally affluent husbands. But I'll have you know that the women in my family have dark hair, not blonde! I don't know if they ever had flings with Timothy Leary, but for humor's sake, I certainly hope so.
