All of these schools are great ?. Hotchkiss has been a great fit for my son; there definitely isn’t a drinking culture with their no chance policy. The kids are not competitive with each other; there’s a lot of diversity and everyone mixes well. They have a film Festival of student-produced short videos, a radio station, no idea about TV.
As I said, all the schools you are considering are fantastic. But if you have any Hotchkiss questions, I’ll do my best to answer!
