<p>My daughter, a high school junior, has read a lot about Yale. She's very interested in finding other colleges that have similar highly-motivated students seeking a challenging academic environment, and that also have a lot of opportunities to participate in theater.</p>
<p>We're looking at lists of liberal arts colleges and would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.</p>
<p>Northwestern, Brown</p>
<p>Northwestern, Tufts, Brown, Brandeis, Vassar, Wesleyan, Skidmore, Bard, Sarah Lawrence.</p>
<p>I heard that Columbia and Barnard (the theatre dept for both schools is actually at Barnard) recently hired the former director from Michigan, but I’m not sure if that’s true.</p>
<p>Thanks for the suggestions; we will check them out. A neighbor recently mentioned Middlebury and Bowdoin. I know they’re excellent schools, but do you know about theater there? Thanks!</p>
