Lehigh and BC are not LACs. [/quote]

BC is VERY MUCH a LAC (just not a "small" LAC).  Even School of Management students are required to take a full liberal arts core - in addition to their management core. They require 2 each of english, history, philosophy, social science, theology - that's 1/4 our your college career.[/quote]

BC has graduate schools. LACs are undergraduate institutions [/quote]

Being a research university vs an undergraduate college or not is NOT what defines being a Liberal Arts school.  The focus of the curriculum does.

The C is for college. Universities are not LACs[/quote]

So you are focusing on the C, while Boston College is a University. You are missing the point - BC's curriculum (as with all other Jesuit colleges and universities) is absolutely a Liberal Arts school - EVEN in the Cchool of Management (which leaves not much room for pure electives, by the way) . There are many other universities where one can go to business school that will not be liberal arts.[/quote]
