[quote=Anonymous]At my Westchester high school in the 1980s, Lehigh, Lafayette and Bucknell were very commonly cross applied. They were academic peers and had similar student bodies. I went to one and my brother another, and we had friends at the 3rd. The schools had more in common than not, but I’d have said the main difference was size- Lehigh the largest and Lafayette the smallest, although Lehigh was smaller then so the difference wasn’t huge. All 3 were known as work hard/play hard type schools, with beautiful campuses but in lackluster settings, and Lehigh and Bucknell were somewhat unique for liberal arts colleges in that they had strong engineering and business programs. I think that Lehigh has grown in popularity because it made an effort to shed its liberal arts college image and be viewed as a true university, and relatedly grew its student bodyso is now a “mid sized” school.
