Another LAC booster.


and what's wrong with that? why are you so hostile any time anyone has a positive experience at an LAC? What did the LACs do to you?

Are parents of students at a liberal arts college not allowed to answer a question?

They've announced Dean's list already?


Not Deans List is not announced yet but you can calculate based on grades. Here is the criteria. PS - this is Engineering school.

Students in the fall or winter term need a minimum of 12 graded credits (pass/fail credits do not count) and a 3.5 GPA or better to earn the distinction of Dean’s Honor List for a term.

Is pledging and will do rush in January and really likes the guys. Excellent professors. Says he found the best fit for him. He is a kid who takes academics really seriously but wants a social life, just not a crazy party life. Northwestern has been a great fit because if you go out twice a week you are “social”.


Talk to him again towards the end of winter.


DP. It has already snowed A LOT for even Chicago before winter starts/this semester.
