[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The military academies were all in the top 10 last year. [/quote] I wonder why they are considered LACs. All of the service academies offer amazing stem education. [/quote] There is general confusion that “liberal arts colleges” only offer arts/humanities. That’s not true. They offer the math/science majors. Many offer amazing stem education. [b]LAC means no graduate school programs.[/b] [/quote] Many LACs also have graduate programs. US News provides this definition: National Liberal Arts Colleges: The 211 National Liberal Arts Colleges (18 public, 193 private and zero for-profit) emphasize undergraduate education and award at least 50% of their degrees in the liberal arts. The Carnegie classification defines them as Baccalaureate Colleges—Arts and Sciences Focus.[/quote]
