I checked with my sister who is a Classics professor and she totally agreed with mamenyu. She said as far as classics - the difference in schools is the difference between Mt. Olympus and an anthill. Her only concern with the most prestigious, Oberlin is that it is extremely liberal and has a wide variety of lifestyles that he may or may not feel comfortable with. Since that seems out of the ballpark financially, her next choice was the same as mine - Lawrence University. I’ve heard wonderful things about the school musically AND it is the only school that has a major in his academic interest which is critical if he wants to continue classics in grad school. Good luck!
