[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter, who has struggled with ADHD, is going to a middle-of-the-road, small, liberal school that probably a lot of DCUMers would down on. We're thrilled for her and she's doing well so far. She found the place that works for her.[b] Surprisingly[/b], her academic experience has been better than my other daughter's experience who is at UVA (e.g., small classes, tons of one-on-one interaction with professors, freedom to pursue whatever major she wants, etc). [/quote] DP. Why is it surprising? Small schools are desperate to attract and keep the customers - aka students - and once they do, they really have small classes, freedom to pursue majors, etc) unlike huge schools that are bursting at seams. Problems might arise in the future when a graduate starts job hunting. But in terms of learning conditions, being a big fish in a small pond definitely has its advantages![/quote]
