[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grinnell, or at least I don’t find their location in the middle of nowhere, Iowa - appealing. [/quote] FWIW, I went to Grinnell from NYC metro, and for me the location was part of the appeal. The small-town Iowa setting brought into sharp relief what a wonderfully national/international student body we had (roommates over my 4 years were from Chicago, NYC, San Fran, Minneapolis, Philly, and Kuwait, and I had a network of friends from everywhere). It all felt so beautifully incongruous. I also think the location attracted a really fun, offbeat group of students -- all had been willing to take a leap and say, "sure, I'll go to Iowa!" By the time I left, I truly loved Iowa. (Still do, in spite of the present-day politics.) Not for everyone, obviously. But for the right kid, it can be part of the charm. [/quote]
