<p>While it is not universally true that the vast majority of students live on campus all 4 years at an LAC, even at Macalester 64% of the students live on campus. If we think of Amherst, Pomona, Swarthmore and Williams as the quintessential LACs, they average about 96% of students living on campus. At Barnard it is 90% and at Oberlin it is 88%.
