Just how difficult is Economics at Middlebury

<p>Son is considering Economics major at Middlebury. Everything we read is that Midd is very rigorous in terms of work load and expectations. Is that just for certain majors, or for all departments? Is there a work/life balance, or is everyone stressed out? Also concerned about what happens if varsity athletics is part of the schedule? We want to be sure this would be a good fit for our son!</p>

<p>Economics is a very popular major for athletes. He’ll have plenty of time though once he gets here to figure it all out</p>
