<p>achat,
My S will be doing the Honors program in part because he is looking for the biggest challenge he can find, (very Swarthmorean) and in part because he has been waiting “his whole life” to study what he wants to study in depth, without someone telling him what he must study. As to the breadth of courses being limited by the Honors Program, I am sure that is true to some extent, but during the course of his first two years he managed to take classes in math, astrophysics, economics, religion, chemistry, physics, history, music and political science, if I am remembering most of them. For him, it’s the right mix.</p>
