Beloit College - too 'hippy'?

Definitely check out Kalamazoo, then. Strong in the sciences, not as arty as Beloit or Lawrence. More of a nerdy school. No frats (though the “fraternities” at Beloit don’t seem to be like fraternities at other schools).

Can your son visit a Colleges That Change Lives fair? My son felt that he got something of a feel for some schools at a CTCL fair. He eliminated Lawrence from his list on the basis that the CTCL representative made it seem too arty. (YMMV. I thought Lawrence would’ve been a good choice for him, but he was the one who was picking.)
