[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Professors are insiders. They know so well at research universities undergraduate students are not their priority. Their offspring are more academically oriented rather than business oriented. Many of them would pursue advanced degrees. LAC is perfect for that.[/quote] +1 All of this is true for DC 1, who will be going on to grad school. They are attending a WASP school, which has been a far better academic experience than I had as an UG. Socially it’s perfect for them, too. However, DC2 is very different, wants big school spirit. As long as they understand what they’re potentially losing in terms of UG teaching experience, I’m okay with it. This kid is more pre-professional and less intellectual, unlikely to go on to grad school beyond an MA. Not going to force them into an educational model they don’t want. HYP grad and current professor, who thinks HYP is best for grad school.[/quote]
