[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Midd and Colby are both above Wake and BC, nowadays.“ How many professors would prefer to work at Colby over Wake & BC? I’m guessing very few. [/quote] A lot of professors, actually. The draw to SLACs is very real. It’s a qualitatively different experience, preferred by many. If it’s not for you, it’s not for you, and that’s cool. But these kind of blanket statements are…odd.[/quote] I went to a SLAC that would probably slot in between the two and we had no problem getting great professors. Being allowed to teach and having reasonable class sizes without the pressure to publish or perish is a draw especially for fields where you don't need a lab staffed by post docs. [/quote]
