[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot have already said similar things, but to me, holistic class design is important because college is about so much more than classes and attaining an education in the classroom. You want diversity to draw out the best from as many people as possible.[/quote] At end of my daughter's freshman year, I helped with moveout/stuff to storage and then offered to take whomever was around/avaialbe of her friends to dinner. Got to meet 7 of her best friends (still friends 1.5 years later). Those kids were discussing what books they wanted to read over the summer, along with other stuff (the major introvert had a longer book list but it was interesting). But just genuinely smart, interesting, passionate about their interests kids. 9 Months before you never would have guessed this group of 8+ kids would become lifelong friends. [/quote]
