[quote=Anonymous]Kid goes to Davidson. The environment is friendly and kind, but kids do study a lot. Kids stress about their studies, but because of the amount of work and their own desire to do well, not student-to-student comparisons. Fellow students and professors are happy to help. In fact, many courses have embedded student assistants who have previously taken the course, done well, and have been selected by the professor to provide additional student help. Professor office hours are generous and well attended. Some DCUM posters may see this as handholding, but it’s more like collaboration and mentoring in a fast-paced, all-in learning environment. No one is coasting because of the help. If they were, they wouldn’t be stressed! But, again, I wouldn’t call the overall environment at Davidson stressful. Socially, it’s anything but, despite some presence of Greek life (which is pretty non-competitive and low-key, especially for eating houses). [/quote]
