[quote=Anonymous]I'm interested in hearing if anyone is a recent alum or has children who have attended St. John's in Annapolis (or Santa Fe).  It looks very different from many college experiences and might be a good fit for my DD but it would be great to learn more from someone who has experienced it.  What is the environment like?  Do students who are not math/science types struggle with the requirements of math and science for four years?  DD is a great student all around and very cerebral, reads a lot and loves to discuss history and literature in small groups.  She's not passionate about math or science but she does fine in the subjects, which is what gives me pause over the requirements.  How is the ancient Greek/modern French mix and do students enjoy that?  DD is currently at a top private and she is very comfortable with seminar style classes and lots of dialog so I'm thinking of having her visit St. John's but wanted to gather some information ahead of that if possible.

What is the social life like?  I assume it's pretty tame but for the right student might be perfect.  My daughter isn't one who wants a party scene and doesn't drink so she would love a place that has a lot of interesting things to do that don't involve the typical college party scene - just not sure what those are at St. John's.

Thanks for any input you may have. [/quote]
