[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s a legit question. My DC senior who is not an athlete has spent the past year looking at the issue. His older sister is an athlete in college and had an instant friend group and has warned him that the divide exists. In my opinion the larger the SLAC the less pronounced the divide is. So the PPs comments on Wesleyan is accurate. Looking at larger SLACs we have divided it between schools that have a Greek system (Colgate and Lafayette as examples) and those that do not (Middlebury and Wesleyan). The Greek schools offer a different avenue to an easy friend group, but we are leaning toward the latter. DS as he said just wants to find an easy to have a social life so that part of college is not a struggle because the academics will be enough of a challenge. So lean toward larger SLACs and decide how you feel about a Greek system, in particular one where people live in the houses. [/quote]
