[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does LAC stand for?[/quote] LAC = liberal arts college. Small schools of typically 2,000 students or less. A few have about 2,400 students. And a very few are in the 2,800 to 3,600 student range. [b]SLAC = selective liberal arts college.[/b] LACs focus on undergraduate students. Tend to have very small--if any-grad students.[/quote] Officially, it is "small liberal arts college." Over the years, some have swapped in "selective" - largely when thinking of schools in the NESCAC (New England Small College Athletic Conference) as they are small [b]and[/b] selective.[/quote] Every liberal arts college is small, that’s why the S is for selective.[/quote] agree, but for years on here and CC, folks would say the S = small, not selective, after I initially asked if the S was for the latter.[/quote]
