[quote=Anonymous][quote]These schools are all large enough to have many different kinds of kids, which is what my DC liked. He didn't want to be boxed into a stereotype that he might have found at a smaller SLAC.

Yes and it would probably be good for your dd to be exposed to people that ha e a diverse range of ideologies and opinions. Going somewhere like a slac would be too much of a bubble imo. Don't you want her to be exposed to people across the political spectrum?[/quote]

I don't understand these comments.  Don't you believe that SLACs try to attract diverse ranges of students?  If anything, you will be forced to interact more with those diverse students in a small environment.  You will be much more likely to see them all the time.  I don't know of any SLACs that do not try to attract a broad range of students.  You are stereotyping the SLACs.

Also, whether you interact with different types of human beings has more to do with your efforts to do so than which college you go to.
