[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some lovely schools are in distant locations, from Bates and Bowdoin to Grinnell and Oberlin. Why go to a school like this if you could get into a comparable school with access to more resources? I'm not being snarky. I am genuinely curious about the appeal.[/quote] What resources do you think kids are missing out on? One of our kids purposely went to a rural SLAC because they wanted a totally different experience than they had growing up here. They loved that it wasn’t in a big town and there were so many campus focused activities. They returned to this area after graduation but said their undergrad experience was exactly what they wanted.
