[quote=Anonymous]DS attends Stanford on a football scholarship. He absolutely loves the school. He feels challenged by the classes, he says the faculty are highly engaged and very accessible, and he's surrounded by other very intelligent kids. He said there have been some lab courses where grad students are present but he's never felt like a second class citizen because he's an undergraduate. One thing that I would point out is there seems to be less opportunity for research as an undergrad probably due to the size and the level of competition for limited opportunities. DD attended a SLAC and the opportunities for undergrad participation with faculty in research were there for the asking. DS social life seems enviable... its built around football but he's having a wonderful experience. We do not live in the DMV (used to). DS high school left him woefully unprepared for Stanford but they do offer academic support which helped him immensely his Freshman year and by Sophomore year it was smooth sailing.[/quote]
