[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone speak to difference in intensity and the social life btw U of Chicago and Swarthmore? My kid likes Chicago but would prefer to be closer to home after being stuck overnight at the airport after trying to fly home this summer. [/quote] My DD is going to be s senior at Swat. The academics are intense (although not in a competitive way)---most of the student body is serious about their studies, and that's reflected by the limited social scene. There are parties and it's not uncommon for students to head to Philly for a night out, but it's not a particularly fun place. She's having a very different social experience than I had at my SLAC, but she would have been miserable there.[/quote]
