[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to Awesome Big State U. And, indeed, it was awesome for the best of the aspiring scientists--more specifically, for the resilient ones who rose to the top. For most of the rest, a liberal arts college probably would have been better or, at the very least, just as good. There were a lot of people there who wanted to become scientists and could have become scientists but aren't scientists today thanks to the cut-throat and impersonal culture prevalent at Awesome Big State U. The big research universities set things up so many will fail. Liberal arts colleges set thing up so most will succeed. Personally, I'm a big research university kind of person, but my kids aren't. For them, SLACs all the way.[/quote] Curious - what do you do now? And where did you do your PhD?[/quote]
