Seminar style or conference system :: fair list?

College Search & Selection
1

<p>In searching for colleges that have or at least claim to offer courses taught primarily in the seminar style, I came across this post earlier this week on the NACAC listserv. Obviously, many schools offer seminars in upper division courses and some offer seminars or tutorials in separate divisions. The old Paracollege at St. Olaf comes to mind. But, check this list and then please comment ~~ </p>
