<p>Out of top national universities (ranging from JHU to HYPS to UChicago to Ivies) how does Brown compare in undergraduate focus? I tend to compare them to Princeton and Dartmouth, collectively more focused in undergraduate than other top national universities. Is that right? Does Brown really focus on undergraduate rather than graduate?</p>
<p>in short, yes</p>
<p>Yes, it does focus on undergraduates.</p>
<p>That's one of the first things and only things talked about in any of the public material.</p>
<p>It's one of the major themes in my Open Curriculum Explained post.</p>
<p>yuppers. profesors care and grad (or student) ta's you do have are really awesome. </p>
<p>my favorite professor once came to the annual women's rugby prom dress game, in a dress no less, and he and I judged the winners of the prom awards (i was sidelined post-broken nose surgery). i mean for serious you don't see that everywhere.</p>
<p>It is well known that Brown, Dartmouth, Princeton & Yale have a LAC type focus on undergraduates. Although it is worth noting that the undergraduate cultures at Dartmouth & Princeton are significantly different than Brown's campus culture.</p>
<p>^^^ very well said.</p>
<p>want to elaborate about the difference in undergraduate cultures??? thanks</p>
<p>CC rule #1. Don’t resurrect the skeletal remains of a thread. This was posted in 2008. All participants are likely college Seniors right now.</p>
<p>As for elaborating about cultures, all you’ll get are hackneyed stereotypes. After all, who can attend multiple colleges?</p>
<p>Most of the commenters in this thread graduated from college years ago</p>
