[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hendrix: Have not visited but want to. Here's what we like on paper: it's one of the few co-ed, warm weather, LACs without Greek life. It's apparently progressive, but without the shouting (and fwiw, left-leaning people in Massachusetts and California swear to me that this part of Arkansas is genuinely great: beautiful, progressive, arty, and kind of hipster.). It seems to punch well above its weight academically-- for one thing, it's on that NSF list of top producers of science and engineering Ph.D.s, above a couple of Ivys and schools known for STEM. The food is some of the best in the country, and the dining hall workers apparently go far out of their way to make every kid feel at home. Lots of hands-on learning, with money for independent projects. Small student body, but apparently with a little of everything, and very friendly. Campus cats. Kid is interested, and accepted, with merit that brings coa to low 30s. Guaranteed flagship match to all accepted students right now. If anyone has visited, I'd love to hear more. [/quote]

We know a recent grad who is a great person and someone DS (a current HS sophomore) admires.  He loved his experience at Hendrix and has encouraged DS to consider it.  We plan on touring next fall. [/quote]
