Re: Brown Hockey 2010-2011 - Onward and Upward
This is at best hearsay. Brown admissions doesn't generally overlap with Providence College. The two schools are looking for different types of kids, and, besides, Providence College is considerably more flexible with the admission of athletes than Brown can be.
I taught at Providence College for six years at the beginning of my career and still have several friends there. It's a good school, well run and with a faculty that has vastly improved since the days when professors were mainly alumni of the college, some without a doctorate. You can get a solid education at Providence College, on a beautiful campus and as a member of a tight-knit community. Nevertheless, there's little comparison between the opportunities, academic and otherwise, open to undergraduates at Providence College and Brown. We're talking about apples and oranges. Brown is looking for students and families who recognize the added value of a Brown education.
