[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sarah Lawrence and Vassar have no Greek life.  Both have strong academics, an intellectual environment and a funky/alternative vibe.

I agree that in many universities the greek life can get drowned out but if you want more of a focus on academics, and smaller classes (more seminars than lectures, more access to professors) a SLAC is the way to go.  I went to a University but DC is looking at SLACs and there's a part of me that wonders if i would have been happier in that kind of environment.[/quote]

A SLAC is a nice change of pace for a DC coming out if a large public school, but for someone coming out of the private schools in DC it's "more if the same."[/quote]

Actually, for many kids graduating from private schools, "more of the same" is just what they want -- more opportunities to get to know their classmates and professors well in a more collaborative and supportive environment where they're not pigeon-holed.  [/quote]

This is true.  And these same kids return to the DMV bubble upon graduation and live happily ever after - generation after generation.[/quote]
