Bennington Is Back

Best Kept College Secrets featured a piece about Bennington's return to its "proper place" in the educational "pantheon" in the wake of a Forbes article, which labeled Bennington as one of tomorrow's hot colleges. BKCS profiles "superior institutions" that have "excellent reputation[s and are] highly regarded by those who know colleges." 

The title proclaims: "Sanity prevails! Bennington climbs back to its proper place in the pantheon." 

The college is most certainly viable and a great college choice again for the candidate who appreciates the many opportunities Bennington offers independent minded thinkers and artists who like the idea of creating their own learning plan. [President] Silver suggests that the initiative helps students to become strategic in thinking about their own education, a necessary step in the formulation of their goals following a stimulating four years at Bennington.
