[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I taught for a year at Oxy and currently live in LA. Bowdoin is a much, much better school but the weather is a serious consideration and Oxy, which has a minuscule endowment relative to Bowdoin, tries to entice strong students with so-called "merit scholarships" (these are in fact tuition discounts, paid for out of other tuition revenue). If you can stomach the weather and money is not a huge issue, Bowdoin by a mile.[/quote] And I know professors at Bowdoin. It's unquestionably a good school, but it's also a country club vibe. Wealthy students disappear to their parent's properties and only mix with their own. This has been the concern for decades. Ranking is not the whole story with small schools.[/quote]
