That may be the only way in which Brown and Dartmouth are similar. Brown has a hippy, liberal reputation and Dartmouth is probably the most conservative of the Ivys.

^yeah, i heard something like Brown is the most liberal school in the country. Didn't know that Dartmouth was conservative.

Dartmouth isn't conservative...it's actually pretty liberal. Dartmouth and Brown are very similar in that both of them have an undergrad focus, are similar in size, and are focused on providing a liberal arts type of education. They are also both in the Ivy League. There are many differences (Dartmouth is rural, Brown is urban), but there are many similarities that can be drawn between the two. One of the most common threads on CC, I believe, involves the topic: Dartmouth vs. Brown? Brown is very liberal, but Dartmouth has become liberal in its own respect.

As far as schools similar to Brown, look into Wesleyan, Vassar, and Rochester.

Good luck!
