^ Yes, being in the same town is useful. And since linguistics is such a small field, you’ll likely have quality classes even at the big state U.

Vassar lists linguistics as an independent-major example, so it has been done; looking at the course offerings, though, that “linguistics” major must have been made up of a lot of language offerings–there are very few true linguistics offerings. And with recent budget cuts (google S.A.V.E. Creative Writing for linkage), I predict ling at Vassar will fall even more by the wayside. Oberlin, too, has a surprising lack of ling oferings when all of its peer Midwestern schools offer a linguistics major.
