<p>I believe that a great undergraduate experience is determined by four things:</p>
<p>“1. The quality of the students that you will attend with”</p>
<p>-This is not objective….</p>
<p>“2. The size and nature of the classroom in which you and your peers will learn from your professors and from one another”</p>
<p>-This is not objective</p>
<p>“3. The quality and nature of the teaching (notice I said teaching and not quality of the research effort)”</p>
<p>-This is not objective…</p>
<p>“4. Institutional resources and the willingness to use these to support undergraduate education”</p>
<p>“Institutional resources” could be objective, but determining how willing a school is for supporting undergraduate education seems murky to me.</p>
