[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grinnell is great - a bit too woke and wacky but it’s massively underrated

Oberlin/kenyon/denison are really hampered by Ohio — Ohio is truly dire whereas the middle of Iowa can be pretty in a little house on prairie way (golden hour Iowa skies are gorgeous)

If the Ohio schools were in traverse city or Madison or Utah, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho , they would be ranked higher.

Ohio is not just “in the Midwest”

It’s one of the most run down and depressing states even compared to non-coastal states [/quote]

Hmmm.  I can take Ohio or leave it. But, Cleveland and Columbus were both surprisingly revitalized and nice when we visited. [/quote]

I'm from near Cleveland and my entire family is still there. Cleveland is provincial and ugly. The fact that it is "better" only speaks to how bad it was before.

Columbus has always been the jewel in Ohio. A nice sized city with TONS to do and lots of schools in and around it, including The Ohio State University, and the state government. [/quote]
