He's likely going to apply to both Bucknell and Lehigh as well as some large universities.

Any ideas for liberal arts colleges with some element of this culture that are a tier above Bucknell? He's actually a really studious kid--a weird mix of super academic and social "bro" (party going, guy's guy, sports loving, etc).





This should be Davidson's advertising slogan. Also fits for Washington and Lee. Maybe UVa, too. Studious frat bro heaven.

not true - the bros don’t talk to anyone except other bros - the wokes don’t bother the bros at Wes because neither acknowledge the other

Dickinson, no way. Greek life is almost nonexistent, and the student body leans more toward woke than fratty.

Davidson, while a great school if you can get in, isn't the best choice for an aspiring frat god.

Denison would've fit the bill 20 years ago, but the administration has gutted Greek life, made all frats nonresidential, and done everything in its power to cut down on the bro/party culture. It clearly wants to be a more clean-cut Kenyon rather than a Midwestern Bucknell.

Maybe add Depauw as a safety, but check it out before committing. Midwestern bro is a different vibe than New England prep school bro.
