One thing you hope to find out/learn more about Swat at RTT: Happiness and fun factor of the student body

Anything else?: When I applied to Swarthmore, I was so excited about some of my other top choices (reed, carleton, etc) that I never thought too much about the school, possibly because I didn’t think I’d get in. Soon as I got in, I busted out several hours of internet research, thorough contemplation, and discussion with parents and friends, and within a few days, for tons of reasons, swarthmore became my first choice.
