A small, liberal arts college located in Bronxville, NY - just north of Manhattan.
The school's slogan describes the student body best: "You are different. So are we."
Sarah Lawrence is considered an alternative school, in that it allows students to create their own plan regarding their education. The arts are highly emphasized, and the teacher to student ratio is one of the best in the country. (Ranging somewhere from 6:1 to 9:1.)
Sarah Lawrence is famous for its large proportion of females to males, usually recorded as somewhere between 60-85% female. The school is also well known for its liberal attitude, and artistically inclined students.
I decided to attend SarahLawrence because of how small and personalized the programs are.
Where kids are grinding hazelnuts at 2 a.m. You never call your teacher "professor." Where the weird kids in high school are considered normal and the normal kids are considered weird. You will walk in on your roommate having gay sex at any given point in the day... or night. The whole experience is devised as fuck.
Lesbian 1: Yo dude who are you writing about for your conference project in Underwater Basket-Weaving Through the Lens of Feminist Intersectionality in 1800's France?
Lesbian 2: Borg....
The one straight person on campus: These Sarah Lawrence College kids are fucking weird
