By “feet on the ground” types, I meant people who seemed well attached to reality, people who would do what was needed to get a job done, people who seemed quite relatable. They are all people who have made things happen in their fields.

I don’t know enough to judge the academics at both. Several of the Guilford people I met have gone on to get doctorates.

You can look at the course catalogs and degree requirements , the bios of the faculty, reviews on Rate my professor, and you will get a sense of how the 2 compare for your needs. Ultimately, you will get out of it what you put in.

Fwiw, I have known people at Hampshire who went on to get graduate degrees. I have also known ones who had zero interest in college but knocked off 4 years of alt life there because their parents insisted that they attend college. And I know one who started in the latter group and ended up in the former.
