WATCH: 'Pretty Little Liars' Sneak Peek - Emily Gets a Little Help from Mr. Fitz

Pretty Little Liars’ fourth season is full of new friendships and surprises, and this week Emily (Shay Mitchell) gets some advice from Mr. Fitz (Ian Harding) about staying true to herself. Dismayed and interminably sad because she can’t swim, Emily’s pretty much shot down any chance of getting into a good school, but Mr. Fitz won’t hear of it as he encourages her to apply to a small college that accepts relatively few students a year. I really hope Emily’s thinking of applying to my alma mater – Mount Holyoke College. I’d love to see her arguing the finer points of Zora Neale Hurston and frolicking on the green in spring like the lesbians did in my day.
