[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So far this thread has mentioned a bunch of LACs that are stressful and then other LACs that aren't even in the Northeast.[/quote]

Why do you disagree with the post listing Bates, Skidmore, Mt Holyoke, and Conn College?[/quote]
Bates doesn’t fit with the other 3. It’s academically rigorous.[/quote]

The quintessential dcum response: don’t judge MY preferred LAC, but I’ll judge yours 🙄[/quote]
What are you even talking about? Bates is rigorous, is that really being questioned right now? Naming a top lac and saying it'll be a "mellow" experience is ignorant.[/quote]

I’m not insulting Bates- I’m calling out you for insulting Skidmore, Mt Holyoke etc. [/quote]
I have no connection with Bates, but it is lauded for academics more than the others. If every school is rigorous, no school is rigorous.[/quote]

My kid looked at Bates, Skidmore and Conn College (along with predictable others)- I’d say none of these 3 seemed markedly different from the others in terms of academic offerings or vibe, and I would bet that there is a similar enough academic cohort. It’s just ridiculous to insult 3 colleges and laude another not appreciably different. [/quote]

We also considered all four  (including Mount Holyoke).  Conn seemed sleepy, but all four are basically interchangeable academically.

TBH, if there is one with more rigorous academics than the others,  it's Mount Holyoke. [/quote]
