As someone who grew up within the Ivy walls – I remember asking my faculty father, “Who prepares students for you better than anyone else?”

He said: Williams, Swarthmore, Amherst, Carleton, Pomona, Grinnell and U Chic.

Does this tell you anything about the professor’s perspective of the difference between Ivy and LAC? Amazingly, his 3 teenage children listened to him and attended LAC’s. And, the one who transferred to Ivy after two years at LAC admits it may have been the biggest mistake in her life – unless you are counting the first husband.
