| Since when does Brown advertise itself as a party school? I've seen Brown's admissions material and sat in on an information session, and that is not the impression that I got.
Any students who go to Brown assuming they can party all the time are in for a rude awakening when they realize they have 1000 pages to read in a week, papers and problem sets to do, etc. There are partiers and slackers at every school, including Brown, but there are plenty of kids there working very very hard. My daughter's workload is significantly higher than her friends at other schools.
Brown may be the "laid-back" Ivy because there are no distribution requirements or core curriculum. Not because it is a party school. |
