<p>My S and I attended the Open House last weekend and left very impressed. We both agree that a small, LAC college would be a great experience for him. The presentation on the freshman Colloquia really made an impression on my S. UNCA seems like such a bargain compared to similar (mostly non-public) LACs. Is it as good as it seems? S now only wants to apply to UNCA and he's a very good match. Still as an OOS student, it seems risky.</p>
<p>What other state colleges adn universities offer a similar focus?</p>
<p>Any information most appreciated.</p>
