[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most employers wouldn't know the difference between honors from the regular college. Now, if it's in a STEM field, school may not make a difference just because STEM people are in demand. For example, in engineering, state schools may have advantage simply because most slacs don't offer engineering. That said, slacs are not vocational or preprofessional schools. These are [b]liberal arts schools whose function is to educate its students[/b]. So OP's presupposition may be wrong. If a student wants to be a nurse, slacs or Ivys including MIT/Cal Tech would be an overkill. A community college might be a better choice under certain circumstances. [/quote] New to the college process and beginning to even understand terms like "SLAC". Isn't educating students the whole purpose of all colleges? Why do you point that out as something specific to SLACs (thereby implicitly stating that non-SLACs don't do that)?[/quote]
