We asked Sarah...
What are the academics like at your school?
professors know my name, where i am from, where i live on campus, and what i do for extracurriculars.
favorite class has to be Politics of Difference, which challenged me to re-think an individual's role in society and participation in politics.
Least favorite was economics.
People study constantly.
Class discussion is central.
Intellectual conversations are happening constantly and is part of the academic experience here.
Students are ambitious and borderline competitive.
Greenville Prison class, where we went to prisons in new York.
Poli Sci is a pretty sweet department, but you better like reading and writing.
History is a great department, the professors are brilliant and make the students push themselves.
I know a lot of my professors and have real friendships with some.
there is no core curriculum, which means there are very few requirements and a lot of freedom!
You will know how to read critically, write well and THINK, which makes you a good candidate for a job...but not any specific one.
