[quote=Anonymous]Chicago: grind, bad weather, regional stagnation (especially in the MAGAmind) Columbia: protest culture ruining experience, the joyful experience of BOTH antisemitic and anti-islamic focus on campus. Current-Administration antiprotest authoritarian threats against the university, NY being cold and gritty. Vanderbilt and Duke: rising southern population, improving science and finance-based rather than old-South economies in the South, greater southern educational success than in the past, increasing selectivity, better weather during the 9 months students are actually in school, sports culture, continuity of classic college experience appeals to some even as it loses appeal on many other campuses (e.g., lots of fraternities (yay) vs lots of fraternities (boo).[/quote]
