[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The very small handful of Grinnell graduates I've come across went on to earn their PHDs and are now  found in very obscure places teaching/studying interesting things, but with little profile or fanfare. The Kenyon graduates I know are more visible to me at least because I live in the DMV and also basically work in Chicago and there are tons of alums at both places, and also most I know went on to graduate professional degrees (JD/MBAs) now in jobs that intersect with my profession.[/quote]

They attract different types of people.  It’s not that Kenyon is a better school than Grinnell.  It’s not. [/quote]

The founding partner of Covington & Burling, which many consider the most elite Washington DC-based big law firm, is a Grinnell grad.  He endowed the Grinnell’s library and it is named after his mother (the Burling Library).  So, yea, over the years a few Grinnell grads have made their mark in DC.  [/quote]

Interesting.  I worked at Covington a long time ago and my DS is applying ED to Grinnell.  [/quote]
