I lived in the NE, and went to Randolph Macon College in Ashland Virginia. It is 30 minutes north of Richmond VA. The train stop is literally the edge of campus. The tracks go through the western edge of campus.

This. Or another college in the Philly suburbs.

And Philly has a big Metro-like commuter rail system that connects with Amtrak. So easy to get around without a car.

Drew is terrific but smaller than 5,000. Fairleigh Dickinson would work, though.

I've enjoyed meeting Paul Smith students while climbing the high peaks in the Adirondack Mountains over the last 15+ years. They all have excellent wilderness skills.
