<p>I think there are probably about 700 to 800 students in the RC. My D is in the RC, and has a busy social life with both RC and non-RC students. That’s the great thing about the RC, you have the advantages of a small LAC, but the student life and resources of the big U. My D is a member of several campus-wide organizations and often goes to frat and house parties. So don’t be concerned about having a limited social life…really not a problem.</p>
<p>I’m not familiar with MCSP, but I can tell you that my D has been very happy with her experience in the RC. She’s become fluent in a new language, pursued her artistic interests and loves her professors. In fact, the small classes and activities offered by the RC foster the opportunity for students to develop strong relationships with the faculty. My D is also in UROP, and that has worked out very well for her, too.</p>
