[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the Swarthmore culture recently? How have your kids liked their experience there? My child is excited about the SLAC experience but I think is worried that the atmosphere might be too intense and the grading too difficult (FWIW this kid has high stats, top in high school, most rigorous courses, top extracurriculars)....any recent feedback?Child would be on a sports team too.[/quote] First sem is pass/fail to smooth the transition. Swat is more pre-professional than it once was, not only because of CS and engineering but 1/4 class first gen students who disproportionately (even by today’s standards) major only in something “practical”. The rigor is also not what it once was. Your DC will be fine.[/quote]
