[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but as I said the specific schools mentioned above were not on my radar as a kid in South Florida. The service academies, yes. State flagships? Yes. Catholic universities? But [b]small, northeastern liberal arts colleges? No.[/b] Some Southern one, like Davidson and Wake Forest? Yes. I guess, what I am saying, is that this appears to be regional and there are schools that end up on a student's list b/c of the are of the country they grow up in. [/quote] There are SLACs all over the country. It is true that there are a lot of them in New England, maybe because historically speaking, the model was established there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_arts_college#In_North_America In general, the SLAC offers an educate for privileged students, because their purpose is to educate, not to train for a profession/job. They are a stepping stone to graduate and professional programs. A SLAC education is a luxury.[/quote]
