[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pomona's great, as is Williams, but most TJ students don't want to be in the middle of nowhere. (from the perspective of a TJ parent who wishes their DC wanted to be at Williams or Pomona ...) [/quote] There are plenty of LACs that are in more urban settings. Pomona/other Claremonts aren't in the middle of nowhere- they're an hour train ride to LA. Swarthmore/Haverford/Bryn Mawr are 12-20 miles from Philly. Wellesley 20 miles from Boston, Barnard right next to Columbia U in Manhattan, Carleton/Macalester a few miles (10-40) away from the twin cities, Reed right in Portland, Occidental in LA, and plenty of others. I think the size is what turns people off; many of these places tend to have less students than high schools do. [/quote]
