[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A majority of LACs will not experience the endowment tax and have not experienced many research cuts from the government. They seem like they could gain a bit of popularity if they invest in student experience. What LACs do you see rising/have continued to rise? For example, some people think Pomona is Williams and Amherst level, which is REALLY surprising, since it was a party school for dolts when I was applying to college! [/quote]

I think Grinnell will continue to rise. The college has gradually been investing in improving living conditions for students by revamping the dorms and equipping them with A/C. Grinnell is becoming an increasingly comfortable oasis on the prairie. [/quote]

I have family ties to this school and loved it for my kid. And they give merit! DD went out there for a couple days, interviewed, and loved the school but it was just too isolated for her. Grinnell, IA (the town) is unfortunately a bit of a tough hang. At least for some. If it was in the Des Moines burbs, they’d be going gangbusters. [/quote]

My kid loved it and received a great education. I'm so glad yours had a good experience, too! With climate change, mine would definitely have appreciated the A/C (which her off-campus house didn't have back in the day). The school seems to keep improving, and yet it stays just enough under the radar that it remains unassuming. [/quote]
