My oldest son is a sophomore at Bard. He is taking jazz and computer science courses. Bard is fantastic for music, and allows him to explore pretty much anything else he wants. One thing he doesn’t want is to be around people drinking or smoking (cigarettes or otherwise). So he and a friend opted to be roommates in substance-free housing this year. He’s the kind of kid that will remind you if you break the rules, and support enforcing them. Anyway, he loves his experience at Bard so far, and has found that he can craft the environment he wants to participate in. And it has made all the difference.
