[quote=Anonymous]It's a 43 million dollar endowment, for a teeny tiny college that's only been around since 1960. It's always been progressive and super liberal. It has no grades, and has the reputation of having quirky (bordering on eccentric) students who are intelligent in often non-traditional ways. People who go there love it and academic freedom, the personal freedom, the social freedom. There's an entire month devoted to a personally-designed project. It's not for everyone, but those who attend and thrive often head off to get PhDs and other advanced degrees, finding themselves ahead of the game because they'd been practicing critical thinking and writing papers their entire undergraduate education instead of studying for multiple-choice tests or hiding in big lecture hall classes. These are dark days for New College students, who chose the school purposely because it did not reflect traditional or classical education molds. -Signed, someone intimately familiar with the school[/quote]
