[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know several kids who decided to attend UVM, including my niece who is doing environmental engineering. She loves hiking, camping, and backpacking and so it's a perfect fit in that regard. She also got enough merit to make it similar to in-state tuition (high in-state tuition state) and likes that it's a smaller public school. She came out as gay during college and found a lot of acceptance and a welcoming LGBTQ+ community on campus and in the area (ya know, Vermont). She's doing great, playing frisbee, hiking, camping, research.

A neighbor's daughter also ended up there for environmental science since full pay for Reed was too much for the family. She also did art history and met her future husband skiing, who comes from a well-to-do family, so that seems to have worked out. They live in NYC and she does museum and environmental education.

Twin daughters of a family friend are also there as first years. They come from a Jewish family and have found a nice pluralistic and interfaith community on campus for the holidays in the fall semester. They are on the club rowing team despite not loving athletics during high school, who has been pretty accessible. They chose UVM because they are interested in politics and they thought that access to the state's capital would make that easier. They are also in the honors program and like the community and academic benefits.[/quote]

NP.  Thanks for this. I have a daughter interested in engineering.  How would your daughter rate the program? Does it have good professors? Contacts? Internships? Many girls in it? Mine wants to somewhere at least 1/3 female.  Thanks![/quote]
