回复:Personally agree that undergraduate programs in some LACs may
Personally agree that undergraduate programs in some LACs may be better than Harvard. The reasons that Chinese prefer large comprehensive universities may be:
1. They are better known in Chinese community and internationally and are thus better for the graduates if they decide to work in China or abroad;
2. Large universities are more diverse and especially for kids who haven't decide on what they want to do so it's easier to change to whatever program he/she want to go to;
3. Most Chinese here are non-liberal arts majors so their kids have a bias to sciences.
I prefer large universities largely because of reason 2 not that I do not know LACs.
