[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People assume Ivies coddle kids because what else is all that money for? Even Ivy parents will tell you that their kids are coddled—smaller classes, easier to register, internship opportunities dropped in their lap. Maybe the parents are lying to try to explain their decision to spend so much on college, but that’s what they say. [/quote] I don’t view smaller classes and ease of registration as coddling. I toured a SLAC with my youngest that said they call and check-in if you miss class or something seems off. Stuff like that is coddling to me. The other things are just having better resources IMO. [/quote] I think the line between “having better resources” and “being coddled” is pretty fuzzy. [/quote] I don’t know, the smaller publics in our state don’t seem to have same class registration issues as the flagship so sometimes it’s just size ay play. [/quote]
