I think it’s generous of OP to take the time to share her experience. Most CC’ers I think are intelligent enough to know that it is one student’s subjective opinion. I think, in particular, her comments about research, visiting profs, and the social life are things that might help families as they consider colleges and offer fodder for questions and consideration. All students are different. I have a niece who attends a small LOC and happily spends her weekends with a small group of friends going out to dinner, hanging out, and playing D&D. My daughter might find that kind of social life also pleasing. My son, like the OP, would want more structured events and wouldn’t be content. Everyone is different.
