[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to a big state school and my DH has only taught at large state schools. What is it like to go to a school of 1,500 students, smaller than most high schools around here? My DC is WL'd at one of these schools but we don't have a feel for this type of college experience to help DC compare it to other options (large publics). [/quote] It was certainly smaller than my high school, but in high school I was part of the group of students who were grinding away to get into competitive colleges, so it was pretty much the same bunch of us showing up in most of our classes. Everyone (or nearly everyone) at Havermore was one of those students, so in that sense my world expanded. On the other hand, if your vision of life at college is tailgates at the big game, Greek life and formals, and other organized events, small schools with Quaker roots probably aren't what you want. Organization is not an area of strength. :D [/quote]
