<p>My son (straight; going into senior year) is interested in SLC, and many things seem like a ver good fit for him (musical, progressive politically) – but I have read that MOST social life involves going into Manhattan ever weekend. Is this true? We live in Manhattan, and m son enjoys seeing friends here, going to hear music, etc., on the weekends – but he would like a fun campus life on the weekends. Does the school really empty out every weekend?</p>
<p>(Also am I correct in thinking that SLC is significantly easier to get into than Vassar or Bard? (it seems that way when I plug in his grades and other characteristics) – Vassar and Bard come out “reaches” whereas SLC comes out “Target.” Could this be true, or am I delusional?)</p>
