| Looking at small colleges in the northeast and MidAtlantic with good academics. So many are in the middle of nowhere though- Colgate, Bates, Colby, Bucknell, Hamilton, W&L. Visited Holy Cross and liked though Worcester isn’t the best and same for Trinity in Hartford. We did like Franklin & Marshall in Lancaster which is a charming small city. Looking at Amherst which is quite a reach school. Any other suggestions?? |

Richmond is listed on the LAC side in USNWR There are several rather small schools that are Universities - E&H and Mary Baldwin in VA and Manhattanville in NY just off the top of my head. |

Richmond is a very blue city. Just learned about this in the recent VA governor election. |
