[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid goes to a SLAC but I think in general, they are out of favor. Kids are used to having a lot of freedom and seem overall more interested in city or big school life. I think LACS are expensive and often remote and its not really what kids want these days. I also think kids are focused on their careers more than education for education sake and therefore they want to attend highly ranked schools or schools with large alumni bases that can directly help after college. If you have a kid that wants a LAC, go for it, but its not for most kids these days. (that said, my kid loves his LAC and is thriving).[/quote] I think this answer is spot on. I tried hard last year to get my DC to consider a LAC. They wanted to major in business and the only one they seriously considered was Richmond. Ended up at a big public. [/quote] So the problem is the majoring in business. [/quote]
