[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they like small, William and Mary if you’re in state. I can’t imagine paying for Swarthmore when they have choices loke UVA and W&M.[/quote]
Don’t listen to these penny pinching folks: Swarthmore is way more prestigious than UVA. It is not even close. Hard to believe this is even a serious question….[/quote]

No. I am from Philly and just no. Your kid will be miserable there.[/quote]

The misery index at Swarthmore College seems to be quite high. Swarthmore is a really good small school for [b]future humanities professors[/b].[/quote]
Swarthmore (alongside Reed and Carleton) produces more PhDs in the hard sciences per capita than just about any other college, including any of the UCs, Chicago, GA Tech, VA Tech, and all Ivy League colleges. [/quote]

Easy to accept this regarding "per capita" since Swartmore is a tiny school of fewer than 1,600 students. Probably true for super tiny Caltech as well.

Serious Question: What is your definition of "humanities" ? I have googled this an d there appear to be various definitions regarding the inclusion or exclusion of math & science. Do you include "hard sciences " ? Thank you in advance for your response.[/quote]
