[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we visited Swarthmore, our tour guide describing being involved in a rather astounding number of campus activities (and he was just a sophomore). When someone questioned this, he said that he had learned his lesson after freshman year and now made it a point of getting to bed by 3 am on school nights (vs 5 am the year before). One mother asked whether any kids just come home for the summer to relax and he said, "Swatties don't relax." The atmosphere seem very unhealthy and competitive to us. [/quote] A graduate of swarthmore here- it is a very intense, very intellectually challenging school. Honestly, too intense for me. But, I never found it to be competitive - completely the opposite actually. I think for an academically motivated, but anxious kid, it could be a great fit, as long as the academics weren’t overwhelming.[/quote]
