[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always thought there was a distinction between SLACs and LACs, where the "S" meant "selective" as in Williams, Amherst, usually Swarthmore, and then draw your own line for selectivity where at the regular LACs. All SLACs and LACs are small in a relative sense, being colleges not universities.[/quote] Nope, it's generally understood to mean "small," and that's been the case for a long time. The "S" as in "small" was intended to highlight the lower enrollments of private LACs, in particular, compared to big state universities. [/quote]
