<p>i'm wondering
is the international studies program strong as i have heard
is the chance of going to georgetown, harv somewhere like that for grad work good if you are sucessful at vassar
how are english, french programs
kind of unrelated-is comparative literature in any way a practical major
given the recent attention on womens colleges as trainers of leaders, does vassar retain the strengths in educating women even tho it is coed
is there mock congress or debate sort of activities</p>
<p>i have a great relationship with my speech and debate coach, he's also my eng teacher and a great person to turn to for guidance and or a laugh
will vassar be full of teachers like these?</p>
<p>is it close enough to a train that you don't need a car to get there</p>
