Small Classes
Independent college alumni surveyed are four times as likely (62 percent versus 15 percent) as public alumni to say they benefited very much from many small classes with fewer than 20 students.
Survey Question: Please tell me how much you personally benefited from your college offering many small classes with fewer than twenty students. (Rating a "5" on a 5-point scale with "1" meaning "did not benefit at all" and "5" meaning "benefited very much.")
