[quote=Anonymous]Earlier in this thread, there was at least one poster asking about the value of a small liberal arts education. I thought about that as I read this from an LA Times article this afternoon about the shooting in Colorado:

"Kelly Huffman, an assistant professor of psychology at UC Riverside, said Holmes was in her Drugs and Behavior class in 2010 and did well in what she said was a challenging course. She described him as “a smart and quiet guy.”

Huffman said that she spoke Friday with the teaching assistant who led the course's smaller discussion section that Holmes attended, and that the assistant didn't recall the shooting suspect. "So that probably means he [Holmes] was pretty quiet," Huffman said."

So, basically, both the teacher AND the teaching assistant didn't recall a student in the class? This would typically not happen in a small liberal arts school. Quiet or not, the student would be known (by the teacher because there wouldn't be a teaching assistant!)[/quote]
