Are Small Colleges Worth the Time and Money
Dr. Gary Quehl argues small colleges with 500 to 1,000 students prove more efficient and affordable despite past fears.

He emphasizes a nurturing, value-driven environment and warns that large schools tend toward depersonalization while small private colleges offer distinct advantages.
