<p>I’ll take the opposite tack and say that while i think the education at W is top-notch and my D is delighted with her professors, it is not so simple to get to Boston / Cambridge / Harvard / MIT and meet boys, and that is a definite drawback to her. Maybe for a super-outgoing person it’s no big deal, but for an introverted person it’s a lot harder to commit to schlepping downtown to stand around some frat party and yell to be heard, versus a co-ed campus in which it’s a lot easier to find / interact with boys. </p>
