The best thing about a campus visit is being around the students and going to a class or two. I agree that going to ANY campus helps you focus your search, figure out your likes and dislikes and learn to ask questions that are importnat to you. Reading college guide books like the Fiske or Insiders guides is also helpful because they describe the students, social life on the weekends, etc. Being socially comfortable will help you take best advantage of the whole experience.
