The bard college experience

<p>I am seeking any and all descriptions about the experience of attending Bard College, from enrolled students and their parents. Some of my questions (although responses about all aspects are very welcome):
What has your academic/intellectual experience been like? Have you been gratified, disappointed, etc.?
Could you describe the Thinking and Learning experience? Do you feel that it was a big help in preparation for college level work?
Do you feel that the administration/professors nurture (not in an infantilizing manner) the students?
What has your experience been with professors?: level of involvement, inspirational teaching, etc.
Has it been fairly easy to be admitted to the classes that you choose, or has this been difficult?
Is the intra-student atmosphere supportive?
What is social life like?
What is the situation like regarding drugs and alcohol?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>I think this belongs in the Bard forum.</p>

<p>Thanks, mini. I didn’t realize that there is a Bard forum; I’ll try to find it, and repost.</p>
