I don't know of many large rah-rah schools with less than 30-40 students in *every* class, but here are Virginia Tech's numbers:
20-49 students 46.2%
Classes with fewer than 20 students 33.3%
50 or more 20.5%
Pretty good sizes for a large school. The intro classes are generally larger, but not huge. My DC goes there and has also had a very responsive advisor who has met with her both virtually and in person since the summer before she even attended. As a freshman, they mapped out her entire four years and she is right on track to graduate on time.

Michigan doesn't fit the small classes and (as a state school) may not fit the sure to graduate in 4yrs (but that is just speculation)
Try doing some research instead of speculating.

Definitely not Michigan. Talk to current students not moms here. They will tell you how miserable they are in these entry-level class with hundreds of kids taught by TAs.
Rarely hear about miserable students at Michigan. Larger entry level lecture classes are hardly ever conducted by teaching assistants. Discussion groups typically have the TAs. Sounds like wishful thinking on your part. Furthermore, very few schools have intro classes of 30-40 students for popular majors. Let’s get real here.

Xavier has the Big East rah-rah basketball, the small classes and the excellent support/advising. But about 5k undergrad, which may be smaller than you want.

Michigan Residential College or Honors College. Work the perks.
It won't kill your kid to have a couple large classes. Most of those have recitations.

Do such beasts exist? Where might they be found?
