[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oberlin, perhaps?[/quote] Yeah, just ten years ago it was better than Kenyon. Now that’s debatable.[/quote] I don't know--when I went to a private high school in Chicago (now 20 years ago!), Kenyon and Oberlin were regarded as academic equals, just different styles/specialties. Both were popular destinations for strong academic well-off kids in Chicago who weren't drawn to the bigger schools like Northwestern. [/quote] I am guessing the quality of education hasn’t changed. Still top notch. What has changed are US News ranking criteria. Schools move up or down by academically irrelevant factors such as the number of Pell-grant students, % of full-paying students, social mobility, etc. [/quote]
