<p>i know that brown, grinnell, and amherst don't have them but i want to know what other schools dont</p>
<p>i also want to know what the positives and negatives of both a college with gen ed requirements and a college with no gen ed. requirements</p>
<p>Hamilton methinks</p>
<p>As to the gen ed/open curriculum debate, ged ed requirements can vary drastically, from a rigid core (Columbia, UChic) to your basic math and english. What I personally like about the open curriculum (and strangely enough, core curriculums) is the intentionality. They are both intended to promote learning as much as possible, a vibe I don’t get from schools with really generic gen ed requirements. That’s boring. I’m tired of linear progressions of math and english. I want obscure, discussion/theory-based classes in strangely narrow fields.</p>
