[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing about remote colleges is that they don’t rely on the big city nearby. Lots of activities to do on campus. My DS went to Swarthmore and I would guess he went into Phila 1X/year. [b]The bonus of Phila was a train station, MegaBus and airport access. [/b] You people of DCUM land are packed in like sardines and can’t imagine another way of life.[/quote] You just described the benefits of not being on a remote campus. Easy access to a city and its services, air/train/bus travel being a huge one. Not a single person on here is saying schools need to be in bustling big cities. They’re saying that a town with some reliable restaurants and stores, as well as easy access to a bigger city can be really helpful. More to the point, OP mentioned concerns about remoteness. So all of these are responsive to that concern. Middlebury, like Williams, is and feels particularly remote. Some people want that. Some people don’t. [/quote]
