Visited and not impressed - Am I wrong?

I was really interested in Whitman until I visited there at their Fall Visitor’s Day last weekend and sat in on some classes. I’m sorry to say, I wasn’t very impressed by the classes or the students in the classes, few of whom said anything. The teachers just lectured and seemed uninteresting and the students all appeared to be slackers (most hadn’t done the reading for the classes). Whitman looked great and my parents were very impressed by what they heard, but the classes I took (Paleoanthropology, Ethics, and East Asian History to 1300) all turned me off. Did I just sit in on the wrong classes?
