I’d be interested in hearing about your research. I think the Wooster campus and the larger community are quite safe.

It sounds like you’ve narrowed your choices to Wooster and Allegheny. They are actually quite similar so it would appear that you know what you’re looking for in terms of fit. One difference is the participation in Greek life. Allegheny is a much more Greek campus. You can look on the College Board site to see the actual figures for participation at each campus.

Again, I would suggest you visit each campus when classes are in session and talk to faculty and students. Look at campus publications (some available online) to get a fuller picture of campus life. Who is coming to campus to speak? What’s being exhibited in the art museum?

I know more about Wooster. There is a fine arts semester available in New York City. Your interest in fashion design could be accommodated – the theater program at Wooster is quite strong and you could do costume design, for instance.
