<< A few of the students are
in fact science nerds, but the percentage of students
with strong interests and abilities in the arts appears
to be much higher than in other high schools, and the
students are encouraged to take courses and to participate. >>
Jerry Pournelle (noted SF author, tech writer and all around good guy) said
once that your average "science nerd" (to use your term) knows more about the
humanaties than the average humanities student knows about science and
technology...a LOT more.
