<p>thanks for your thoughts livesinnewjersey. I was concerned about the grade deflation as well, but after talking with many students, it does seem to me not to be that big of an issue. Everyone is going through the same thing. My d has great time management and writing skills and her possible choices in majors seem to be not as stressful as say pre-med or engineering. I have become more confident that she can handle it. I know Elon is a wonderful school too and that made the decision that much harder.</p>
