Is Davidson Worth the Debt? (vs UNC)

Davidson is a top 10 LAC. UNC is a top 5 public university. Academically, they are completely different, but roughly equal. If cost were roughly the same, I would recommend fit. Some people prefer the LAC environment whereas others prefer the larger research university setting. But cost is not the same and graduating with $60k-$70k debt is just way too much. I would even recommend UNC over Harvard for such a disparity.
