[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The LAC comments may represent the “feel” of the school, and perhaps historical majors, but we just toured last week (with a junior) and they said 60% of undergrads are STEM majors. [/quote] Science and mathematics are Liberal Arts fields.[/quote] And yet most LACs are majority humanities[/quote] My kid went to Oberlin. Majored in a science. If you pull out the conservatory, which is separate admissions, it was about 50%/50% STEM/ Humanities. Possibly tipped over into more than half STEM. Great STEM education and research offerings. Saw great STEM at a number of other SLACs, including Grinnell, Macalaster, Carleton, St. Olaf. Kenyon less so, but its writing program is what makes it unique. (We focused on Midwestern and not NE SLACs). [/quote]
