[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It exists at Wesleyan, but because Wes is bigger than most other SLACs, I think it’s less pronounced. My (extremely non-athlete) kid is dating an athlete. The places where I’ve heard it’s particularly pronounced—Amherst, Williams—are ~2000 students, vs. 3000+ at Wes. Also look at schools that don’t have football teams; that makes a big difference at a small school given how huge football teams are. Carleton and the 5Cs are worth checking out.[/quote] Carleton has a football team. [/quote] Ah! My mistake. FWIW, I’ve not heard people talk about an athlete/non divide there, which is why I made that assumption but should have checked.[/quote] Carleton has a much lower percentage of athletes overall; it is not like a NESCAC school. Vassar also has a lower percentage.[/quote]
