Going to college in one's own hometown?

A lot depends on the college. If it is a “suitcase school” and the campus empties out on weekends, then it will nod be a positive. My granddaughter goes to Harvard even though she lives just a few towns away. The fact that she lives nearby makes absolutely no difference to her college experience. Her best college friends are scattered all over the country. If anything, being close to home is a plus.
