[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS graduated from Swarthmore and was an athlete all 4 years. He would describe the school as intense, but not cut throat. No one talked about grades. Small class sizes and professors know their students. My DS's Dean approached me on graduation day to discuss his attributes. The campus sits on 425 acres and is a suburban setting and quite beautiful. It was a good fit for my kid. This small setting provided a opportunity for him to gain some leadership experience from Captain of his sport team to RA to student led advisory board. As a sidenote, he was also accepted to a highly ranked NESCAC, but he preferred Swarthmore.[/quote] Thanks, this is helpful. My DD is the type to love spending time outside of class talking to teachers and discussing academics with classmates so this is pretty normal for her. She doesn’t want Greek life but she does want to play her sport for four more years. Thanks for sharing.[/quote]
