cpq1xtbu,

Not Silentsailor, but I wanted to add that two of my son’s friends (freshmen) have Centuries and are working on independent research with strong faculty support.
One’s in the social sciences and the other spends lots of time in the lab with a professor pursuing a research project.

My son does not have a Century but is in very close touch with his professors
and continues to e-mail and visit profs from last term. One of last term’s profs
led him to very helpful data that he needed for current in-class research. Two others
have made it clear that once my son decides on the direction of future independent research, they’ll be there to work with him.

Century or no Century, faculty access is superb. Sometimes my son initiated the ties, and once a philosophy prof saw him walking across campus and invited him over to his office for a long discussion. Nonetheless, best not to wait and better to reach out to profs. Just one knock on the door and ties are easy to develop!

And with a Century, the first steps have been paved for your son!
Congratulations!
