<p>my daughter is searching for schools with strong math/science depts, engineering a plus, with a friendly, supportive atmosphere, where alcohol isn't necessarily the dominant social scene and sports are big. a liberal bent is a plus. major evangelical christian influence on campus a turn-off. excellent GPA, , solid but not spectacular SAT's. thoughts?</p>
<p>hmmm. maybe I worded the question incorrectly as i’m getting no replies. how about bucknell, tufts, colby, bates, colgate, hamilton, union, lafayette? which looks like a “best fit”?</p>
