| mom in virginia,
Harvey Mudd is extremely well known and highly regarded in academic circles - I am pretty sure more of it's graduates pursue Phd than any other school on your son's list. And it is a super-techi place (though liberal arts education is easily available through Pomona, etc.)
It's not for everyone - my son did not want to apply there either. But the reasons you've listed are not the right ones (except for the lack of graduate program - but most students go to a different school for grad school anyway...) |
