<p>Everyone has been so helpful. Our daughter is <em>not</em> that interested in anything STEM related. Political Science, especially the domestic social and political scene. She is also not very interested in fantasy books. Where as her brother loved Harry Potter, she was never drawn in. I am wondering about MHCs STEM and Political Science focus. That isn’t her interest. </p>
<p>So far it looks as though Bard and Clark seem to fit her well. Hampshire also, but we will need to visit.
Simmons seems way too career oriented and not a true LAC.</p>
<p>Skidmore is sounding less liberal and and artsy. She likes that type of environment. </p>
<p>We will visit MHC when we visit Hampshire, Bard, Bennington, Skidmore and Clark.</p>
<p>She does not have any interest in BU or Northeastern for the same reason my wife did not. Too large and no actual campus. Any other college east of Worcester that we should visit?</p>
<p>Is Brandies too much of a stretch? Is it too Jewish? My wife had two Jewish friends who transferred because they found it to be too religious. I am a non practicing Jew ad my wife is Lutheran. D is Lutheran. We celebrate Hanukkah. and attended a summer camp that was mostly liberal, cultural Jews and WASPS. If the college was “heavy” in any religion, including her own, I don’t think she would like that.</p>
<p>She is availing herself of the Oberlin program. Made the call today. Thank you for telling us about that.</p>
<p>So any other colleges between Boston and Worcester that we should visit? </p>
