[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, only liberal arts colleges??[/quote] Maybe not only liberal arts colleges, but it stands to reason that with their smaller sizes, they might be able to select for a particular ethos in the student body and then attract new students on that basis. So if 80% of students at a 2000-person school are down-to-earth, that's pretty pervasive in the student body, even if it's only 1,6000 people. As someone else said, you can no doubt find many down-to-earth students at large universities as well. If 10% of students at a 40,000-person university are down-to-earth, that's a larger number. But do they pervade the school? Probably less likely.[/quote] 80% of students are down to earth, but have parents willing and able to afford a liberal arts education for their children? That seems very unlikely to me. [/quote]
