[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking forward to you not supporting that study abroad proclamation. [/quote]

Many small schools go out of their way to tout studying abroad on their websites because they know that applicants worry (with good reason) about the claustrophobia of having to spend four years in a small environment in the middle of nowhere.  It's kind of ironic -- I mean, if the education and social experience provided by these schools is so awesome and special, then why do you need to get away? -- but it makes sense.

Perhaps you lack a good reference point, but many students are quite thoughtful when making such decisions. Pretty sure most (yes, even those from loser CTCL schools) aren’t going abroad simply because they are claustrophobic and disappointed in what they had hoped would be an awesome and special education.
