[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They sit in that odd in-between where they're lesser-known by the general populace, but are incredibly overhyped by those in the know.

No one cares about your Williams or Amherst or Swarthmore, and they're slowly but surely becoming increasingly irrelevant in today's higher ed landscape.[/quote]

Not really, graduates of the three schools you mentioned will have the same grad school and employment opportunities of an HYPS grad[/quote]

Keep hyping. They are not worth $80,000 per year in this age. [/quote]

Of all the schools that charge that much per year, I'd argue that LACs are the only ones worth the price tag.[/quote]

That's laughably untrue. If anything, technical schools (the MITs, Georgia Techs, Caltechs of the world) would be able to justify the price tag. The LAC boosters truly live in a world of their own.[/quote]

Or maybe SLAC boosters know that not everyone wants a carrier in STEM and that different kids like different types of schools and that’s ok [/quote]
