![Wayland Historical Society Executive Director Scarlett Hoey explains the history of the Cochituate Gatehouse.
"The exterior is still a nice monument to remember buildings [involved in] water history," Hoey said. "We all drink lots of water, and it's such an important resource that we kind of take for granted nowadays."](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/IMG_2024-1200x800.jpg)
I just got accepted into top 2 college choices, Stanford University in California and Columbia in New York. I just cannot choose which one i want to go to, could you great Vilma assist me with my decision?
You were accepted into two great schools and therefore have a tough decision ahead of you. If you like both schools equally then your decision comes down to location. California is a long plane ride away whereas New York is a short bus or train ride away. Do you want to get as far away from Wayland as you can, or do you want to have the possibility of coming home for the occasional long weekend? Location plays a huge role when deciding what college to attend.
