fiskelove,

If your daughter wants a really “intimate” experience, majoring in Spanish would be a great option. From the little interaction I’ve had with them, I’ve gotten the impression Spanish majors are generally an animated and friendly bunch. The Spanish professors are nice, approachable, and numerous relative to the number of students in Spanish. But beware of English, where classes are famously tough and people notoriously post-modern. Along with Spanish, German and French are also “good” departments.
