<p>D has not found professors unapproachable – to the contrary, professors/TA’s, proctors very engaging if one makes the effort to have a discussion. The experience is what the student makes of it – if student takes challenging courses and makes the effort to delve deep they will have a rewarding experience. Also depends if students are shooting for an A, or the B to get by. If student takes easiest courses and does what is minimally necessary and concentrates on partying, school may seem a breeze (or perhaps a “blur” :>)</p>
<p>SVMom – curious if your son took Math 55 as a math major – a course I have never heard anyone describe as easy?</p>
