[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sad? The truth is that SLACS, especially cold, rural ones, are out of style. [b]They have no lay name recognition [/b]and are absurdly expensive with no opportunity to live off-campus later to save $. [/quote] This is true and perhaps not irrelevant, but such schools will indeed have name recognition with hiring managers at elite firms that hire out of undergrad. Yes, common folks have never heard of Middlebury, Grinnell, or Kenyon, but the elite-educated set will be well-acquainted with these institutions. [/quote] +1 I work at a prestigious organization and hire a summer intern each year, and the candidates from selective LACs definitely catch my attention. [/quote]
