My daughter is beginning to look at colleges, and she'd like to attend a school with an equestrian program. Horses are recreation to her, she's not a serious rider, but it's her most fun hobby. She goes to horse camp every summer for the entire summer, and beginning last year she was a junior counselor. She wants to major in English, and she'd like to be a writer.
Any recommendations out there?
University of Minnesota at Morris is widely regarded as the best public liberal arts college in the midwest, has a great humanities department (I know a fair number of the faculty and my father chairs the department), and maintains full stable facilities right on campus. (You have to bring your own horse.) It also doesn't cost an arm and a leg but I wouldn't offer that as a major selling point, of course. Not to her, anyway.
University of Minnesota, Morris
More shameless boosterism for a school that isn't even my alma mater: they've got an amazing international study program and they just recently renovated their science facilities (with a multi-million-dollar grant.)
Minnesota might not hold considerable appeal to your daughter, but it's not any colder than NH, and Morris isn't
that boring.
