[quote=Anonymous]People keep saying that Swarthmore was too intense so I'm wondering what that means exactly and how you were able to tell it wasn't a fit for your child. My daughter is talking to one of the coaches about playing a sport there and she is already used to an intense academic schedule (think "Big 3") and seems ok with that. I don't want her having a terrible college experience though so I'm trying to look for clues about what makes something too intense vs intense in a good way. I love that the first semester at Swarthmore is pass/fail and I feel like that's a nod to them trying to give students a chance to adjust and make things not as intense. And the players on the team all seem pretty well adjusted and just as diverse and somewhat nerdy as she is. Am I missing something? [/quote]
