[quote=Anonymous]I have kids at Vanderbilt and Rice and they are both very happy. Neither school is grim. Vanderbilt tends to attract smart, extroverted, and very social students. Rice is nerdier, but it has a very inclusive residential college system. At both schools, students seem to be supportive of each other rather than competitive. The happiness factor was a big reason why we chose those schools. Among other schools we visited, Notre Dame seemed to have a really good vibe. Very friendly students. Not particularly diverse though. And surprisingly, the University of Chicago seemed like a pretty happy place for the right kind of student. In contrast, Columbia seemed exceptionally dour. And we felt no love for Northwestern. It seemed cold in all meanings of the word. [/quote]
