[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Based on reading a 2012 or so edition of the book, I think these schools generally have faculty whose job is to teach, not do research while having TAs do the teaching. They have close contact with, care about and nurture students. Which is not to be misunderstood as coddling students or having low expectations. Many of these students go on to do great things. I think some students who are finding themselves at college or who might get lost in a large anonymous public university environment would do well at these places. [b]Some underachievers in high school might blossom. [/b]Hence, Colleges That Change Lives. Looking back, I think I could have used such an environment. But like others say, situations can change fast in a small school, so doing due diligence and looking at financials, etc. is important.[/quote] We have one of those kids. Just needed a little more time and a warmer environment. [/quote]
