[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Oberlin and Kenyon both suffer from being in Ohio. The kind of kid who wants to go to Oberlin doesn’t want to be in MAGA land. That’s why they’re trying to attract students with so much merit. If Oberlin was in a blue state, it wouldn’t be handing out money. [/quote]

Explain Grinnell then.  It’s in the heart of MAGA country and in the middle of nowhere and súper left wing and kicks the snot out of Kenyon and Oberlin in the rankings.  [/quote]
Grinnell has a very big endowment (usually in the top 10 or so for largest endowment per student of any school). It still gets ranked much lower than most of the schools with similar amounts of $$.[/quote]

“Much lower?”  Really?  It’s ranked 11th in the current rankings, which sure ain’t low, and it’s ranked 8th with the service academies taken out, which is very high.  Several of the seven liberal arts colleges above it have higher endowments.

In other words, you’re wrong.  [/quote]
