[quote=Anonymous]I want a 'good' school because I think there will be more focus on academics vs alcohol, which I associate with middling schools. But I'm not looking for the 'best' as I think it may be filled with cut-throat competitors. I made good friends in college, and we studied together and supported each other. I worry my child won't find that community spirit at the most competitive schools, and will be stressed instead of supported by the make-up of the student body. I also want a school where my child will actually be taught by the professors, not one where the professors are off doing research and writing books and my child is left to the mercy of TA's.[/quote]
