[quote=Anonymous]The professor time is really valuable because you really have the time to talk concepts through in more depth, if you’re the kind of kid who likes that.  Most of my classes were under 25 people, and I had a few classes under 5 people.  Even my class that was 100 people the professor knew every kid, had read their files and was famous for randomly saying something about where you were from.  Professors just really cared about getting to know you.  It matters are far as helping you feel engaged and feeding your interests, but on a practical level it’s very helpful for graduate school recommendations as well as for writing your honors thesis research paper.  The school really stresses that they expect this level of engagement from professors and the professors who teach there mostly do so because they want that environment.
I’d also note that I never had any problem getting into any classes I wanted to take or changing majors.  My friends that went to large schools spent a lot of mental energy figuring out how to get the classes they needed for their majors because classes closed out.[/quote]
