[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Small schools with big sports is a big ask. Leafy campus near a city doesn't make it easier. Richmond? Pitt? Neither falls into your size range, but either/both might offer the size/vibe your DC actually is looking for.[/quote]

Yeah I always tell parents to get their kid to pick a lane. The “medium size” college camp is a very small group, and you should have preferences between big and small learning environments[/quote]

Agree, but it broadens a bit if you're cool with Catholic schools. Places like Dayton or Marquette could be great likelies for OP's kid if he finds the religious aspect neutral or better.[/quote]

+1 midsize city school generally = Jesuit schools. They often have a lot of school spirit around basketball.

And it's easy for a non-Catholic to fit in.  Even a non-religious person.  First time my kid ever opened a bible was Theology 101.  They loved their time at a Jesuit uni (top 2 choices were both Jesuit).  Those mid size schools have a lot to offer
