Interesting town vs. interesting school

While right now going to a school with a good campus may seem important, in 2-3 years, you will probably not live on campus and not spend as much time as you did there, and in 4, you may be searching for a first job near campus. A town with more opportunities may seem more appealing then. I don’t have any personal experience with this, but I’ve heard several stories about older students “outgrowing” those smaller LAC’s that looked so appealing as high school seniors.
