You're not going to catch every individual student with a general description. Brown in general is academic - the kids are there because they love to learn and they enjoy the freedom of the open curriculum. But it is a pretty smart and hard-working group. So the day to day, especially when you're taking math, applied math, or computer science can be a grind because there are assignments and work to produce.

Not if you want a politically balanced (in any way) environment. Carleton is crazy woke. DD had a miserable time there.

Maybe you could give some examples from your daughter's time there that would explain what made her unhappy? (And, I guess, unable to transfer?)

NP - I have a current student at Carleton. It is not overly political or progressive. Yes, it is a college campus, and those tend to run blue. There is administrative support for minorities, international students and LGBTQ. There are also conservatives on campus. Kids can very easily be apolitical and focus on other things.

I would not like my children to attend college with anyone who uses the term “woke.”
