S2 is in the Honor’s program at a large public in electrical engineering. Though there are 50,000 at the school, he says he is with the same 100 kids for his EE major courses and the same 300 for general engineering courses. There are 500 in the Honors Program and they did a great job the first couple of years keeping these kids together. Thanks to extremely generous merit scholarships, we are quite happy writing out a tiny little check each year to cover tuition.

I guess you need to factor in the strength of the major at each of these schools. Not all kids at the top of their high school class are made equal…
