[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Problem with the big schools is that your student is [b]just a number [/b][/quote] I heard that line hundreds of times 50 yrs ago when I was in high school near Boston. “Oh, you don’t want to go to UMass—you’re just a number there,” was like a mantra among my classmates. But the kids who went to UMass (& paid something like $300 per YEAR in tuition) did just fine (I didn’t go there). I’ve attended a bunch of schools over the years, from a 230-student private to a 60,000-student public, and at each one of them I was a number to some people, & other people cared about me deeply. You can make any school feel big or small via your own attitude & actions.[/quote]
