Acceptance rate 9%. Students are for sure smart, but I checked the websites of faculty for some majors which I am very familar with, then I felt sad for these students.
It is for sure one of top LAC schools, which are the favorites for the white families, i do not see necessarity for ABCs to get enrolled there--- there are plenty of choices outside.
这五个学校是Swarthmore, Franklin & Marshall, Villanova, Bryn Mawr, Haverford。
感谢金一位还有另外两位童鞋的明示。
1. 感觉所有LAC开设的课程都很类似，大体上是science，art和humanity。进二十年为了提高生存能力和竞争力，都增加了computer science。当然还有纯理工的LAC学校像Harvey Mudd和Rose-Hulman。
2. 这些LAC多数地处偏僻，校园不大，但非常优美，恬静安逸，是专心读书的好去处。
3. 因为学校小学生少，多数学校一半以上学生参加Varsity从事至少一项以上的运动。学校运动设施场地非常豪华。
因为第一晚住在Swarthmore校园的hotel，有不少参观学校的学生和家长。第二天一早开车在校园里没见到几个学生，感觉有点寂寞。但是校园很美，外形设计一统风格。
第三天周六参观完Amish county去了Franklin & Marshall, 当天阳光明媚，校园里到处都是朝气蓬勃的学生，几乎都穿着校队的运动装，似乎有好几场比赛。校园干净大气，学生宿舍很新，长长的几桩宿舍楼下是各种咖啡冷饮书店银行和餐馆。人来人往好不热闹。
周一一早去了Villanova, Bryn Mawr和Haverford。
Villanova着实让我shock了一下，校园实在太美了，美得不像话。而且不是那种老旧的建筑，明显的是最近十年修建的。一条宽路把校园分成两部分，学生宿舍给人感觉很豪华，和主校区完全一致的风格。火车站居然就在宿舍楼旁边，可以想象过节回家的学生拎着箱子走几步路，就可以坐上火车回家或到机场坐飞机。
随后参观的另外两个就没啥印象了，只记得两校都是火车站在校园内，后来去Ｐ也看到了火车站。
紫檀似乎对Villanova这个学校没有任何信息，倒是那天看国内人介绍美国学校的文章里居然提到这所学校，而且评价还不错。
drave from west to east?
Villanova在大马路Lancaster Avenue南面的校园区是新建的，大约两年老。Haverford校园里的pond很漂亮。Bryn Mawr校园更stuffy一点。其实在三个学校所在地是非常prestigious的区。
F&M是本地和附近州里没有进第一档学校的学生的选择，非常精巧。
说实话，我觉得Swarthmore 有点被overrated. 我没有觉得它stand out. 当然是不错的学校。
that is the best part of my life--- basically, my schedule follows the games of my kids-- no matter thye are home games or on road
还有，普大火车站旁边有个很好吃的上海餐馆，你早说我就提示你了。
当然还有Amherst, Williams, Middlebury，Bowdoin都很好很漂亮。
when kids go to colleges, there are no games to watch
can only watch on TV if there is any live show
They are in the same club. The kids who are admitted to either of the elite schools are considered luxiously lucky.
中国城里有几家越南店，我最喜欢城门对面的那家，门在第十街，名字我从来就不知道。
又要得罪人了，，，run//
更适合综合性大学，而不是LAC。
