[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"They choose to keep their freshman classes small." Yet when a college with a finite campus expands with satellite options (Northeastern), we lose our minds. Some top schools could expand if they tossed up new dorms and made classes bigger, but the experience wouldn't be the same. If more people expanded the idea of what "elite" was, they might include more of the big state universities that definitely have room for their kid.[/quote] That’s exactly the issue: these colleges are more concerned with maintaining their “experience” and cache than they are about expanding access. [/quote] The experience is why people go there. You can get a great education anywhere in the U.S. [/quote] Hmm, I would hope the education is better at these institutions? The experience itself doesn’t seem appealing…cut-throat and stressed-out kids ready to elbow you out of the way?[/quote] It isn't though.[/quote]
