A year ago, I was you... worrying about college (and Vanderbilt)

<p>Huh? I honestly feel like Rice and Emory are different because they are in very large metropolitan areas with reasonably high Asian populations compared to other metro areas in the south. Regardless, I don’t think the yeahbuddy should have much of a problem, but still, schools in very large metros should not be directly compared to ones that are a bit smaller and likely have less diversity. The cities and schools will still feel very different. Nashville is more like Durham/Raleigh than Houston/Atlanta (though I will say that Nashville nightlife and festivity scene is likely quite a bit, if not significantly richer than Durham/Raleigh).</p>
