[quote=Anonymous]At a SLAC you max out on soft skills (writing, reading, research, public speaking, leadership, teamwork, organizing clubs and events, glad handing, etc.) at the expense of hard skills. This trade-off is worth it for many students interested in the learned professions (JD/MD/PhD) but it also can work out for fields like journalism, entertainment, and management consulting. Paired with a quantitative major, a SLAC degree, can also work in banking. It's harder to get into the bulge bracket banks from a SLAC than from an ivy, but it's easier from a SLAC than from many state schools. I know a fair number of SLAC alumni and they are not starving.[/quote]
