发帖数: 19398 | 1 Just weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court said it would revisit the question
of affirmative action in higher education, a new report sheds light on how
widespread the use of race in admissions remains.
The report from the American Council on Education, a key Washington-based
umbrella group for higher education, paints a picture of university leaders
and admissions officers striving to form racially and socioeconomically
diverse entering classes in the face of legal constraints and other

Typical Chinese thinking: trying to find a shortcut.
I will try to explain here:
First, there are two types of undergraduate education: liberal arts
education and a more technical one similar to a professional school.
Liberal arts education is a general education and it’s not intended to
prepare you for a job. Most private colleges, liberal arts colleges and ivy
schools belong to this type. Universities/colleges of this kind have
undergraduate part called college. Like Harvard College or Yale |

发帖数: 61690 | 5 he White House said Tuesday that President Barack Obama will delete a
proposal from his budget that would tax college savings plans for some
families, an idea floated just before his State of the Union address, a
White House official said.
The president had proposed taxing college savings accounts called 529s for
wealthier families. That would have helped pay for another proposal: free
community college tuition for many students across the country.

发帖数: 2198 | 7 几年前LAC在申请美国留学的大陆学生中间可火了。
大家的评价纷纷是 精英教育，小班教学，师生互动多，学生少，大家容易抱团。
不少完全有实力的留学生，有很高的SAT TOFEL分数，放着便宜容易进的名校（U
Washington,U Michigan, Purdue, UIUC, USC等)不去，偏偏去挤破头皮申请那些名字
都很少有人听过的Liberal arts college，导致LAC的申请录取率比那些名校还低，这
样一循环，中国学生更是挤破头皮想往LAC里面挤，甚至有人觉得挤进去了就是精英，
进不去上了USC，Purdue这些名校就是loser。
可惜这些学生来了美国一两年后就傻逼了。LAC所谓啥”精英教育“ ”高门槛“ 都是
北方那些落后州的白人们吹鼓出来的神话（95%的LAC都在北方那些），LAC里面的专业
都是一些物理 化学，生物 数学之类的万金油专业。读出来就是死路一条-继续读硕士
读博士当千老。
再跟美国人一聊，发现原来美国人眼里LAC跟社区大学没多大区别。尤其在南方州和东
西海岸，稍微有点文化的美国家长都从来没考虑过让小孩去读LAC。谁放着三四十名，

发帖数: 51 | 38 为什么要选择college?
很多新移民落地后都选择打累脖工，薪水比较低，大部份都没有福利，从长远考虑不是
长久之计。同时加拿大的专业工作也比较难找，随着美国经济的回落，加拿大的很多企
业也在不断的裁员 我本能的感觉是在短期内找到专业工作的可能性很小，思来想去，
还是决定去念书，原因如下：
1，对新移民来说，上学期间可以申请到学生贷款，念书期间没有太大的经济压力。
2，不管在LINC还是在ESL学习英语，尽管也能有所提高，但效率太慢，而且提高的多为
简单的生活用语，而通过college系统的全日制学习，专业英语将会有很大程度的提高。
3，目前的经济不景气，利用这段时间充充电，磨刀不误砍柴工。
4，毕业后拿到的北美文凭有利于以后找到专业工作。
确定上学以后有两种选择：一种是university ，一种是college。因为申请university
必须要通过托福考试，而且要是高分（像多伦多大学至少要求托福580分），另外
university多为四年的课程，而大部份移民都想选择短一点，快一点的课程，既能拿到
文凭，又能贴近将来的工作，这样一来college就不失为一个好选择。如果将来毕业 |
