[quote=Anonymous]DS is a freshman. A number of kids drop out during first year. It’s a TON of reading and every student is expected to participate in every class. You do not take computer or phone into class with you - instead you are focused the entire time. DS had top 15 SLAC options and chose STC. I was not convinced but it is perfect for him. He’s also very into the intramural sports there. Dorms are subpar, food subpar and very restricted hours, but it is perfect for him. Many kids are unprepared for the amount of reading there is and the fact that there is nowhere to hide if they don’t do it. And for math, freshman year all they do is read Euclid. This is not for everyone. But if it’s right for your kid, it’s tremendous. Strongly recommend doing a 1 week summer program there to get a sense for it. Bonus if you end up going, you get $2k/yr aid.
