For economics: Hamilton or Bucknell?

Hamilton College or Bucknell?

Both good liberal arts schools. Both have amazing economics alumnus. But I was wondering in terms of prestige, education quality, and placement for grad school, which of these two schools is better.

Bucknell is the superior choice.

^Any reason why? You sound too confident, lol. Hamilton was ranked better by a double digit margin than Bucknell by US News, and even though the rankings are not totally accurate, I would assume Bucknell doesn't totally dominate. But perhaps you know something I don't, and I would really like to hear any info.

I shouldn't have said "superior". It does seem unnecessarily confident, ha. Where you go to undergrad is virtually irrelevant. Go to whichever school you feel fits your academic and social interests the best.

So, I think I'm going to go with Hamilton. What do you all think?

Between those two I think you can flip a coin or go with your favorite. Not going to matter that much.
