[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think of friendly/nurturing/supportive as a place where you can take risks and put yourself out there with no guarantee of success, feeling comfortable that no matter what happens it’ll be okay.

Want to go on stage for the first time? People will cheer for you even if your voice cracks. Founding a herpetology club? Not only will no one mock you, they’ll say “what a cool niche interest.” Taking a class that’s completely out of your comfort zone, whether physics or dance? People will remark it’s cool that you’re trying something hard, and they’ll offer extra help of you need it.

No pride in weeding out, or in having sharper elbows. Just a community that’s more in it together than not. [/quote]

This sounds good. What colleges would fit this description?

I recommend reading Colleges that Change Lives. Just flip through it and start reading about different colleges. The author talks a lot about supportive atmospheres where students are encouraged to explore and branch out.[/quote]
