[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are things at the smaller liberal arts colleges, like Williams, Swarthmore or Amherst?[/quote]
Swarthmore is a mess and is rationing out CS courses, because it's such a problem. Williams and Amherst are fine. Pomona, well known on this forum, is stretched beyond imagination with about 2x the amount of CS majors of Williams and Amherst, while being a smaller college.[/quote]

Carleton has a match system to help students get the CS courses they need (https://www.carleton.edu/computer-science/resources/registering-via-the-match/). My student is a non-major but has been able to take lots of higher-level CS courses.[/quote]
This seems like it would become overburdened after a few years in test phase. After a while, these type of ideas falter when Popular CS courses are offered such as AI, ML, etc. Likely a good amount of students are being denied courses they want, because they need to match appropriately for upper division classes.[/quote]
