| Friend of mine is a recent grad, graduated about 4 years ago. Very smart student who could have gone to a better college, but is Quaker and wanted a small college with values supporting nonviolence.
She says that the classes weren't that hard, but she easily could supplement them by using the professors' office hours. The professors were very focused on teaching, and were pleasures to work with.
She told me an interesting story of how her roommate's senior project was living in the nearby woods finding her own food and building her own shelter. Apparently, the college didn't realize all of this, however, until the spring when -- for safety reasons-- they had the girl move back into the dorm. The girl had enough info for her senior project, however.
From what I can tell, it's a very liberal campus in terms of students' being very interested in environmental and social justice issues. |
