[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First year classes at Harvard and MIT are taught by faculty members. [/quote] Be careful what you wish for. My daughter is a 2nd year professor at one of the Ivies and she doesn't care about teaching first year classes. She spends all of her times doing research and teaching first year classes is, in her words, a distraction. All of her colleagues think the same way. You can't provide a quality education if you think teaching first year classes is a distraction.[/quote] Harvard specifically has freshman seminars taught by faculty. All freshman are encouraged to take one a semester. MIT has older and more established faculty teach. The younger faculty are often not as strong pedagogically. The point is, people shouldn't spread rumors about elite schools.[/quote]
