<p>I’ve heard a lot about SLE, but I want to know what it is. Also, a lot of people say that if you’re in the SLE program, you’re in a different dorm…What’s the difference between SLE and normally going to Stanford without SLE?</p>
<p>[Structured</a> Liberal Education | Structured Liberal Education](<a href=“http://www.stanford.edu/dept/undergrad/cgi-bin/sle/]Structured”>http://www.stanford.edu/dept/undergrad/cgi-bin/sle/)</p>
<p>And if you do a search on the Stanford Forum for SLE and structured liberal education, you’ll get all the pros and cons laid out for you.</p>
<p>So, if someone was going to do a biology major or an engineering major, they wouldn’t be able to be in SLE?</p>
<p>SLE works for STEM students - my D was one of them. What makes you think otherwise? The only students who can’t do SLE are athletes because their practice schedules conflict with the afternoon seminars.</p>
<p>I thought that SLE was only for liberal arts majors…would a STEM student be someone who’s in the sciences…? Sorry, I don’t know all the terms… Also, would someone who’s majoring in some sort of science have to take extra classes if they’re in the SLE program?</p>
<p>I believe the IHUM requirements from non-SLE students changed this year, so I’m not sure whether SLE now requires more humanities classes than would otherwise be required. Someone else will have to answer that. </p>
<p>STEM=Science, Technology, Engineering and Math</p>
<p>Thank’s for the info!!</p>
