[quote=Anonymous]I'm following this thread with interest. I have a DS who plans to major in physics and is deciding between UMD and W&M - we're in MD. I agree with the PP who said to talk to a physics professor - that is what my son did when he went for a tour last fall. Just cold-emailed the admin asst of the physics dept who hooked him up with a professor who had time to chat. If your DC is into accelerator research, Jefferson Labs is right there, and at least some W&M profs are involved in research there. I think my son would be happier at W&M (and we'd prefer it for the size/teaching... and yes, both of his parents are academics! we know that not all professors love teaching!) but it's going to be hard to swallow the price difference, when UMD's physics dept is good. Wish us luck, too! :)[/quote]
