[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friends - all of you saying "cold is no big deal! just bundle up!" don't HATE the cold.

The question isn't whether someone who doesn't hate cold weather can deal with cold weather.

It's whether someone who HATES cold weather should pick a school in a cold climate because it's a few points higher on some list than a school in a place where they don't hate the weather.

That's why OP just needs to let her DC decide.  None of us can predict how he'll handle the cold, and it may be difficult for him to assess, too!
It's all part of growing up. If he chooses the cold weather school but ultimately realizes that he's not a good fit for cold weather, he can make it priority to look for jobs in warmer climates after graduation. Whatever he decides, take it as an opportunity for him to learn more about himself and how that may help shape his future life choices.

OP, I sincerely hope this doesn't sound dismissive, it's not intended that way. Good luck to your son with his decision![/quote]
