<p>Can anybody tell me about the honors program? Does it have special dorms? A friend's daughter has been admitted. She's very interested in the writing program, but is not a big party girl or rah-rah sports fan? How easy would it be for her to find quieter more studious peers in the honors program?</p>
<p>bethviet, there are special dorms for the honors students, and they get a special study center as well, and generally better facilities. I'm pretty sure there are also specialized learning communities, and there might be one for the creative writing program, i dunno, but I think it is somewhere on honors website. As far as atmosphere type in these forms, there are different things I've heard, some party (a lot) and some study. Visiting while in session I think would be important.</p>
<p>Thanks Karl Marks</p>
<p>This is really helpful.</p>
<p>BTW, one of my son's favorite schools is Grinnell. I guess that's in Podunk too, but we love it.</p>
