Atmosphere, Academic Challenge?

<p>she has enjoyed it very much- likes the small personal atmosphere of the school. Small classes- accessible profs etc. Salem has been fine too- I think she feels there is enough stuff to do but not an overwhelming amount. She is often busy studying (or sleeping!) on weekends so does not feel she has missed out on being in a big city atmosphere- or more of a rah-rah college town atmosphere. In fact, she visited a friend at the U of Oregon in February and loves Eugene but she said perhaps there were TOO many fun things to do and that is might have been a distraction had she gone there undergrad. </p>

<p>She is thinking about going to a university or larger city for grad school- now she feels ready for the challenge- spent a semester abroad last fall and that really gave her a taste of the “wide world out there.”</p>

<p>One negative comment is that the selection of guys is not to her satisfaction- the ratio of women to men in almost all the LACs is skewed to women. A large university has a larger pool of guys!</p>
