Rhodes is in Memphis.

My DS loves Furman. The location is "near" Greenville. So, not urban and not in the middle of nowhere.

We haven't been there but Lake Forest College has always interested me.

Visited Holy Cross and liked though Worcester isn’t the best and same for Trinity in Hartford. We did like Franklin & Marshall in Lancaster which is a charming small city. Looking at Amherst which is quite a reach school. Any other suggestions??

Richmond is a very blue city. Just learned about this in the recent VA governor election.


Yes, it is. VA urban areas tend to be.

I consider VA mid-Atlantic, though I know not everyone does.
