Wesleyan is not exactly small. It is about twice the size of Amherst, for example. So I don’t know that you really get the small LAC feel that you would at truly small LAC.

The advantages of attending Brown over Wesleyan are severalfold: smarter students, more intellectual environment, better opportunities to graduate school, easier job placement, etc. Moving from Cornell to Brown would still be moving to a “smaller” school, since Brown is much smaller than Cornell.
