[quote=Anonymous]What follows aren't rankings so much but observations: [b]Swarthmore[/b]: arguably the most rigorous and scholarly-minded school on this list. Also, given my priorities--a highly intellectual experience both on and off campus (which Philadelphia, with its rich history and cultural offerings, certainly provides) and access to excellent public transportation--this school would be *my* clear first choice. [b]Amherst/Williams[/b]: preference for one or the other depends upon whether one finds the five college consortium or Oxford style tutorial opportunities more appealing. [b]Wesleyan[/b]: arguably the artsiest of all the schools on this list and should be choice no. 1 for any aspiring filmmakers [b]Tufts[/b]: great engineering and IR, in particular. Also arguably in the best location given easy access to Boston/Cambridge just a few T stops away [b]Kenyon[/b]: home to the [i]Kenyon Review[/i] and one of the best English departments in the country. However, given the present political climate, the location of this school in Ohio is a serious drawback and also, it is somewhat of a cultural oasis [b]Bates[/b]: a strong school attended by down-to-earth kids (relative to those at the other schools on this list anyway) [b]Hamilton[/b]: like Bates, a strong school but like Kenyon, a cultural oasis [b]William & Mary[/b] (OOS): I've heard good things about this school. That said, the election of Youngkin as Virginia's governor would give me pause [/quote]
