M D is a sophomore at Vassar and she has been very happy with the class sizes and the quality of the instruction. She feels her professors have been very good and have been willing to help when needed. She has taken a lot of interesting classes so far and does feel the work load is quite heavy. D feels she spends most of her time reading and writing (English major) without a lot of free time. It seems like there are always performances (music, theater and dance) going on. While D did four years of high school theater and had leads, she knew it would be fairly competitive to get parts and she was right. She did not get into the first things she auditioned for as a freshman and decided to do props for a play that November. In the spring she got a part in a “late night” musical theater production.
