| well, for me, Mac was so much more appealing then oberlin. i visted both on gorgeous fall days, so the weather didn't have much sway on my opinion. at Mac, i found the students to be MUCH more happy. they actually approached me and my friends and wanted to know if we had any questions about mac, i was invited to a class by a complete stranger. Even though i hadn't been accepted, i felt wanted. Macalester also has a very strong internationalism thing going on.(i'm not sure if oberlin has the same thing.
At oberlin, i just didnt feel as happy when i left the campus as i did with mac. i went to a boring class that completely turned me off. but there is an amazing yarn store in the little down town...
my feelings about these schools have everything to do with me, both are great, well respected schools. (as i'm sure you know) |
