<p>Has anyone here taken SLE? And if so, is it really has intense as the website makes it sound? What are the pros and cons to it? I know you get a closer relationship with all the people in it, but is getting to know more people better? O__o</p>
<p>Don't do it. For the love of god don't do it. SLE sucks. We label all weird kids as "SLE kids."</p>
<p>Haha, alright. Thanks for the suggestion =D</p>
<p>SLE is a great program, but it's not for everyone...

<p>wow..that article was SCARY</p>
<p>Okaaay, NOT doing SLE x___x</p>
<p>yeah I have a friend who's a SLE kid, but I never see her. And when I do, she's pretty stressed. And it just sucks to have class in the evenings... makes it impossible to do a lot of other things.</p>
<p>so its basically a less Western-oriented alternative to the core? I don't quite get what exactly it is... sounds pretty weird</p>
<p>It's basically what you take if you want to work really really hard and you like reading books by dead white guys.</p>
<p>SLE books:</p>
<p>they read all those books in 10 weeks?? wow....</p>
<p>do people like this class? the article made me want to take it to challenge myself, but then not want to take it because of the time commitment and social segregation...</p>
<p>is there some sort of orientation about the program us pre-frosch get - in other words, how does one make an educated decision whether or not this program is right for them?</p>
<p>Yeah, see...those are books that I'd be willing to read at leisure just for reading's sake...but with a time limit and essays....holy crap x___x;</p>
<p>just by talking to current students, both SLE and non-SLE. People who take SLE usually like it, for the record.</p>
